How is magnetic saturation achieved in a separately excited DC generator and what is the impact?

What will be an ideal response?


The field flux, or magnetic strength of the magnetic poles, is increased as the field current is increased until magnetic saturation occurs. Saturation of the magnetic field means that no more magnetic flux can be produced even with an increase in field current.
