Question

what is the role of split in an electric motor

Answer 1

hi

Electric motor is a device which converts the electrical energy into mechanical energy. In an electric motor the split ring commutator is used to reverse the direction of current in the coil.

Answer 2

Split rings act as a commutator which rotates with the shaft as well and keeps contact with the carbon brushes making the flow of current continuous in the shaft and also in the external circuit.
