Abstract :
Optimum loading of brushes in old and new electric machinery is reviewed in view of advances in equipment design and carbon-brush manufacture in recent years. Poor machine operation as a result of either too light or too heavy loading is discussed. Problems involved are of concern to machine designers and operating engineers
