  • Abstract
    THE D-C MACHINE is about the most complex piece of apparatus in the rotating machinery field, mainly because of the challenging problem of commutation. In the present age of driving d-c machines to ever greater output, the necessity for a thorough understanding of the nature and causes of brush sparking has become of paramount importance.
