Answer / sivasamy k
Exciter is providing DC supply to AC Gen Rotor,the DC
supply is improving the magnetic flux density in AC Gen.So
your Generating voltage is rised ,which is upto your rated
voltage.

Answer / rakesh
exciter is giving dc source to the stator field windings
in case of generators
if we give dc source what will happen is create constant
magnetic field around electromagnets
so whenever rotating conductor cuts the magnetic field the
emf will be induced ,this emf have collected conductor bars
so power is produced
exciter main function is maintaining constant dc source

Answer / muhammad zafar iqbal(uet lahor
Excitor produces AC suply which is converted into DC by means of retifier or simply diode bridge.This DC is provided to rotor magnetic field winding producing stong field because DC peak value is high and it is constant.Thus induces Current in the stator armature conductors.In this way,exciter excites the
Generator

Answer / mohit parmar
exciter gives the DC supply to the rotor of the ggenerator
developing a magnetic field,with the help of exciter we can
also vary the pf and voltage level of generator.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 28 Yes | 19 No |
Answer / nalla
the function of exciter is to generate the rotor magnetic field and thus control the terminal voltage of the Generator and also to vary the MVAR output of the Alternator.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 14 Yes | 6 No |
Answer / roberto c. abejo
There are two types of exciters. STATIC and ROTARY Exciters. The function of an exciter is to supply the excitation DC voltage of the fixed poles of Generator. and or the function of all exciters is to enable a voltage regulator or other control device to use a control signal to adjust the much larger of generator field current. In essence, the exciter is a power amplifier.

What is safety of Ht panel
What are the different ratings of the fuse units for different distributions at your organization?
Electricty is generated at around 16kV, then step up to 220kV for transmission then steped down to power transformers then DTs and then through the LT n/w it reaches the consumer end. At the consumer end 230V supply is required. So, why is electricity not generated directly at 230V and transmitted?
