X75 Crypto 9.11.28. 3 B.H.P. D.C. PLANT MOTOR AND REGULATING RESISTANCES. Voltage 100/110 Amperes 27 Speed 1500 } Given on plate. Observations running light :- Normal speed on 114 volts = 1640 Speed reduced by armature series resistance supplied = 1570 Speed increased by field series resistance supplied = 2850 Resistance of armature circuit at 20° C = .5 ohm. Resistance of field circuit at 20°C = 64 ohms. Resistance of armature series rheostat = 2.2 ohms. Resistance of field series rheostat = 250 ohms. | ||
