Q. A Synchronous machine is called doubly excited machine because

A
It can be over excited
B
It has two sets of rotor poles
C
Both its rotor and stator are excited
D
It needs twice the normal exciting current
Solution:

A doubly excited machine means supply(either ac or dc or both) is given to both of the parts i.e. to the rotor as well as to the stator.

In the case of synchronous motor, when 3 phase ac supply is provided to the stator, it produces a rotating magnetic field.
