Q. The current carried by damper winding under normal running condition is ;
Solution:
Alternators carry damper winding (copper bars) to prevent hunting (momentary speed fluctuations). They also provide starting torque in synchronous motors by means of eddy currents set in them. Under running conditions the rotor is continuously running at synchronous speed, so the damper winding does not carry any current.
