Question

The simplex lap winding has the range of winding pitch of _________

(a) (-2,2)

(b) (-1,1)

(c) more than 2

(d) less than 1

This question was posed to me by my school teacher while I was bunking the class.

My query is from Armature Windings topic in division Armature Windings of Electrical Machines

Answer 1

The correct option is (a) (-2,2)

Best explanation: For a progressive winding, forward pitch – backward pitch = winding pitch

             yb = coil sides/P +or-1 (m)

    Here m is such that to make yb an odd integer.
