  1. A 6-pole lap-connected dc generator with 480 conductors has armature resistance of 0.06 ohm. If the conductors are reconnected to form a wave winding, other things remaining unchanged, the value of the armature resistance will be _______ ohm .
    1. 18 ohm
    2. 54 ohm
    3. 0.54 ohm
    4. 5.4 ohm
Correct Option: C

Rlap =
