Not only can a synchronous motor drive a load with greater efficiency than an induction motor, a fringe benefit of the synchronous motor is the ability for power factor correction. What statement is true? |
A) If the overall plant has a lagging power factor, the synchronous motor is over-excited. |
B) If the overall plant has a lagging power factor, the synchronous motor is normally-excited. |
C) If the overall plant has a unity power factor, the synchronous motor is normally-excited. |
D) If the overall plant has a leading power factor, the synchronous motor is under-excited. |
