Embedded temperature detectors in a machine's winding give

  • A.the temperature of the bearing at each end of the shaft
  • B.the hot spot temperature rather than the mean
  • C.the mean winding temperature over its whole length
  • D.the temperature of the cooling air within the machine

Answer: B

Correct answer: the hot spot temperature rather than the mean

Detectors are embedded at the points expected to run hottest, typically between the coil sides in the slot, so they report the worst place rather than an average. The resistance method, by contrast, gives the mean temperature of the whole winding, which will always be lower - and it is the hot spot that determines insulation life.
