Abstract
Studies were made recently for the purpose of detecting light-energy pulses from sparking brushes by means of a multiplier phototube. The effects of machine speed, number of brushes, and distance between the light transducer and brush — commutator interface were investigated. In all cases a good correlation between pulse count and visual commutation was found, and the condition of black commutation positively indicated
