Armatures are wound to provide high voltage, high current, or some specific combination of voltage and current. Which type of winding provides high voltage and low current?
A) frogleg-wound
B) lap-wound
C) wave-wound
Frogleg-wound
A winding pattern used in some electric motors or generators, characterized by its leg-like divisions for improved performance.
Lap-wound
A method of winding coils in electrical machines where consecutive coils overlap like the steps of a staircase.
Wave-wound
A method of winding used in electrical machinery where coils are connected in series to form a continuous wave-like pattern, optimizing the use of conductor material.
