Solution

The correct option is C

Mixed wound


To find the DC generator connection

  1. The DC generator must be mixed wound to withstand the load variation.
  2. There are field winding connected to the output terminals in both parallel and series to provide a suitable generator load/voltage output characteristic.
  3. DC generator for supplying ship services are usually compound wound.
  4. These types of generators are restricted for the use of power supply because of their increasing terminal voltage characteristic with the increase in load current from no load to full load.
  5. Hence the DC generator should be mixed wound

Therefore the correct answer is Option C
