A direct current motor is connected to a 250-volt DC supply. The armature has a current draw of 165 amperes when operating at full load. You have been assigned the task of connecting two resistors in the armature circuit to provide speed control for the motor. When both resistors are connected in the circuit, the armature current is to be limited to 50% of the full-load current draw. When only one resistor is connected in the circuit, the armature current is to be limited to 85% of full-load current. Determine the ohmic value and min-imum power rating of each resistor.
At standstill condition, the back emf is zero, so the motor can be safely turned ON without a starter. Select one: OTrue O False
What are the main reasons and affect if the Main Contactor Energizes but Motor Does Not Start.
