In DC power transmission, which among
the following is a DC generator whose function is to inject or add a certain
voltage to the supply voltage so as to compensate the voltage drop (IR drop) in
transmission feeders?
Booster
Shunt generator
Feeder
Compound generator
Booster
A booster is a dc series generator
whose function is to add or to inject into a circuit a certain voltage that is
sufficient to compensate for the IR drop in the feeder. The booster must work
on the straight or linear portion of its voltage characteristic.
Hence, the correct option is (A).
