The shunt and series fields can be connected in two ways. 1. Short shunt. 2. Long shunt. When the MMF of series field opposes the MMF of shunt field, the generator is differentially compound. The terminal voltage decreases sharply with increasing load current. Evidently this connection is not used. In cumulative compound the connections of the two fields are such that their MMF’s added and help each other. If the series field is very strong, the terminal voltage may increase as the load current increases and it is called over compounding. When terminal voltage on full load and no load are equal, it is known as flat compounded generator. If the series field is not strong, the terminal voltage will decreases with increase in load current (under compound) Circuit diagram for cumulative compound generator: __________________________________________________________________ Electrical & Electronics Department – CJITs - 35 - DC Machines Lab + DPST Switch 3 point starter A F L − + DPST DPSTSwitch Switch A Y + 230 V DC Supply YY A A M F A + V G FF AA AA F − FF Resistive Load − Fuse 20A Fuse 20A Armature Resistance (Ra):DPST FUSE 5A + + A − A 230 V DC Suppl y + M V − AA − Series Field Resistance (Rse):DPST FUSE 5A + + A 230 V DC Suppl y − Y + V YY − − Procedure: __________________________________________________________________ Electrical & Electronics Department – CJITs - 36 - DC Machines Lab 1.
