In a V-curve characteristics plot of a synchronous motor representing the variation of armature current with field current, which of the following statements holds true regarding its operational capability across various load lines (such as no-load, half-load, and full-load)?
- 1The motor can operate at both leading and lagging power factors by over-exciting or under-exciting its field winding✓
- 2The motor draws zero armature current at the minimum point of any V-curve
- 3The motor can only operate at a leading power factor across all excitation levels
- 4The motor can only operate at a lagging power factor across all excitation levels
Correct answer
The motor can operate at both leading and lagging power factors by over-exciting or under-exciting its field winding
