MGVCL Exam Paper (30-07-2021 Shift 1)
Two-wattmeter method is used to measure the power taken by a 3-phase induction motor on no load. The wattmeter readings are 375 W and –50 W. Calculate the reactive power taken by the load.
The series electromagnet is energized by a coil known as current coil which is connected in series with the load so that it carry the load current. The flux produced by this magnet is proportional to and in phase with the load current.
