Question

2. Write the function of split ring commutator.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Definition of split ring:

The split ring in the electric motor is also known as a commutator that consists of a simple ring or cylindrical shell which is split axially with the parts insulated from each other.

Split ring commutator function in dc motor:

The split ring has the function of reversing the current at that point. When a dc motor shaft comes into contact with a split ring, the split ring reverses the current to maintain the shaft torque in a magnetic field.

Answer 2

Answer:

The split ring in the electric motor also known as a commutator reverses the direction of current flowing through the coil after every half rotation of the coil. Due to this the coil continues to rotate in the same direction.
