Load Test on DC Compound Generator -Determination of Characteristics

salient features

1. To obtain load characteristics on a compound generator. Both internal and external characteristics in cumulative and differential modes can be obtained.

2. By adjusting the motor field resistance, set the motor generator to its rated speed.

3. Take the readings from no load to full load.

4. By interchanging the series terminals of generator, repeat the experiment to take differential generator characteristics.
