• The coils are connected in series.<br />

• The junction points of the coils are<br />

connected to a commutator.<br />

I_<br />

• The commutator consists of<br />

insulated copper segments<br />

mounted in a cylinder.<br />

• Two brushes are pressed to the<br />

commutator to permit current flow.<br />

• The brushes are placed in the<br />

neutral zone (magnetic field is<br />

close to zero) to reduce arcing.<br />
