Electrical Machines
A dc shunt generator, when commissioned after a major repair of the field system, failed to build Up voltage. It was because

 field resistance was higher than critical resistance
 there was a break in the armature circuit
 field winding was wrongly connected
 field system lost residual magnetism

A DC shunt generator builds up to a voltage of 220 V at no load while running at its rated speed. If the speed of the generator is raised by 25% kepping the circuit conditions unaltered, then the Voltage to which the machine would build up will

 increase to 1.25 times 220 V
 not change and remain at 220 V
 increase to value lying between 220 V and 1.25 times 220 V
 increase to a value greater than 1.25 times 220 V
