The variation in terminal voltage of DC shunt generator with respect to variation in separately excited DC generator is ___________

The variation in terminal voltage of DC shunt generator with respect to variation in separately excited DC generator is ___________ Correct Answer Much rapid

The terminal voltage drops off much more rapidly with load in a shunt generator than in a separately-excited generator because of fall in field current with terminal voltage. The external characteristic is a double-valued curve with a certain IL (max).
