Correct Answer - Option 1 : 62.5 A
Concept:
The current in each parallel path \(= \frac{I}{A}\)
A is the number of parallel paths
In a wave wound generator, number of parallel paths = 2
In a lap wound generator, number of parallel paths = number of poles
Calculation:
Power (P) = 20 kW
Voltage (V) = 200 V
Total current \(I = \frac{P}{V} = \frac{{25 \times {{10}^3}}}{{200}} = 125\;A\)
Number of parallel paths = 2
The current in each parallel path
\(= \frac{{125}}{2} = 62.5\;A\)
