Discussion

Consider the following statements about armature reaction.

1. With brushes on the geometric axis it is cross-magnetising.

2. A brush shift introduces a demagnetising component.

3. It is cancelled by interpoles under the main pole faces.

Which are correct?

  • A.1 and 2 only
  • B.1, 2 and 3
  • C.2 and 3 only
  • D.1 and 3 only

Answer: A

Correct answer: 1 and 2 only

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: with the brushes on the geometric axis the armature field is entirely across the main field, and shifting them converts part of it into opposition. Statement 3 attributes the wrong remedy - interpoles sit between the main poles and correct the commutating zone, while it is the compensating winding, embedded in the pole faces, that cancels the distortion under them.
