The starting torque of a synchronous motor on induction start comes from

  • A.its damper winding acting as a cage rotor
  • B.its field winding carrying its rated direct current
  • C.the reluctance of its salient poles alone
  • D.the residual magnetism retained in its pole faces

Answer: A

Correct answer: its damper winding acting as a cage rotor

The damper bars in the pole faces behave exactly as a squirrel cage, so the machine starts as an induction motor and accelerates to near synchronous speed. The same winding then serves its other purpose in running, damping the oscillations that would otherwise develop into hunting.
