Two synchronous generators operating in parallel 200 MW and 400 MW respectively. The drooping characteristics of their governors are 4% and 5% from no load to full load. Consider the governors operating at 50Hz on no load. How will the machine share, if the load is 600 MW?

 generator 2 gets over load
 generator 1 gets over load
None of these
 200 MW and 400MW

A dc shunt generator, when driven without any excitation, showed an open circuit voltage of 12 V. When the field winding was excited, the voltage dropped to zero. It happened because

 there was a break in the armature circuit
 field resistance was higher than critical resistance
 there was no residual magnetism in the field circuit
 field winding was wrongly connected
