This document describes an experiment to obtain the magnetization characteristics of a separately excited DC generator. The aim is to find the critical field resistance. The nameplate details and components used like the voltmeter, ammeter, and rheostats are provided. The procedure involves connecting the circuit and bringing the motor-generator set up to rated speed. Readings of generated voltage and field current are then taken at open switch position and as the field resistance is decreased. A table to record readings and a graph are included to present the magnetization characteristics and calculate the critical field resistance.
