Question 194Electricity & Electronics - QMED
70% to passAfter closing the circuit breaker to place two alternators with identical ratings in parallel, in terms of achieving a balance between the two alternators, what is the NEXT step?
Abalance the kilowatt load
Bbalance the power factor
Cbalance the voltage
Dbalance the ampere load
AI Explanation
The correct answer is A) balance the kilowatt load. After connecting two alternators in parallel, the next step is to balance the kilowatt load between the two alternators. This ensures that each alternator is contributing an equal share of the total power output, preventing one alternator from being overloaded. Balancing the voltage (option C) or the ampere load (option D) is not sufficient, as it does not guarantee that the power output is evenly distributed. Balancing the power factor (option B) is not the immediate next step, as it is more important to first balance the kilowatt load.
