Which of the following will decrease when the supply voltage of a D.C motor is increased?
Which of the following will decrease when the supply voltage of a D.C motor is increased?
Right Answer is:
Full-Load Current
SOLUTION
As we know that T ∝ Ia
- Therefore increase in load on the motor demands more torque from the machine, consecutively the motor requires more current for driving the load it is subjected to.
- When there is no load on the motor, the motor takes less current for its operation since load torque is less armature torque is less.
- The power output of the motor remains the same and thus the full load current is reduced when the voltage is increased to maintain constant power.
