Question 103Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is D) Cleaning of windings should be performed on a conditional basis using a vacuum or using a clean, dry, lint-free rag. This is the correct answer because periodic cleaning of the windings on a brushless generator should be done only when necessary, based on the condition of the windings. Using high-pressure air or hot soapy water can potentially damage the windings, so these methods should be avoided. Instead, the windings should be cleaned using a vacuum or a clean, dry, lint-free rag to remove any dust or grime, but only when it is needed and not on a fixed schedule. The other options are incorrect because A) cleaning should not be done regardless of the state of cleanliness, B) hot soapy water should not be used, and C) high-pressure air should not be used to clean the windings.
