The DC shunt motor is wired so that the field coil is connected in parallel with the armature. Both windings get the same voltage. The shunt field coil is wound with many turns of fine wire to create a high resistance. This ensures that the field coil will draw less current than the armature (rotor).

Higher voltages mean lower currents, and lower currents mean less heat generated in the power line due to resistance. AC can be converted to and from high voltages easily using transformers. AC is also capable of powering electric motors.
