Right Answer is:
Equalize voltages on the positive and negative outers
SOLUTION
- The purpose of the Balancer is to redress the voltage on the positive and negative outer.
- Let us suppose P and Q are the armatures of 2 DC machines that are connected in series across the outers and the field being cross-connected.
- Out of balance load makes the DC machine works automatically as a motor or generator in order to compensate for voltage drop or rise.
- The balancer connected to lightly load side always work as the motor while that connected to a heavily loaded side act as the generator.
- The energy is always transferred from the lightly loaded side to the heavily loaded side.
