How is dynamic braking for a DC motor accomplished?

Correct Answer

verifed

verified

Dynamic braking for a DC motor is accomplished by permitting power to remain connected to the shunt field when the motor is stopped, and reconnecting the armature to a high wattage resistor.

____________________ is defined by NEMA as a system of braking, in which the motor connections are reversed so that the motor develops a counter torque that acts as a retarding force.
