Question 1

What is electric braking in DC motor?

Accepted Answer

Electric braking is a method of bringing the rotating motor to rest. When the load is removed from the DC motor or when the supply is disconnected, the motor should come to rest. But there will be a delay before it stops.

Question 2

What are the types of Electric Braking in DC motor?

Accepted Answer

The three types of electric braking in DC motor are
Regenerative braking
Rheostatic or Dynamic braking
Plugging

Question 3

In which type of braking, the polarity of supply voltage is reversed?

Accepted Answer

The polarity of supply voltage is reversed in the plugging type of braking. Hence it is also called reverse current braking or counter-current braking.
