Answer / sunil guru
COMMUTATORS IS USED ALONGWITH THE BRUSH TO PROVIDE UNI-
DIRECTIONAL CURRENT AND TORQUE FROM THE ARMATURE
AND IT CONVERS AC TO DC IN DC MOTOR OR GENERATOR

Answer / arun kumar
ACTUALLY COMMUTATOR WAS USED TO ENERGISE THE WINDING FOR DC MOTORS
AND FOR GENERATORS COLLECTS THE EMF FROM ROTOR
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 0 No |
Answer / kalaimagal
In dc motor actually dc supply will be given as source for
excitation.the function of commutator is to convert the ac
supply to dc supply,it same as rectifier function.

Answer / anil bhatia
commutator is basically a midiam by which current is passed
through from fixed conductor to rotating field of rotor or
vise versa.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 2 Yes | 2 No |
Answer / desingurajan
First answer is moreover correct
But 4th is 100% wrong answer
(In DC motor we do not give AC supply)

Answer / bhagya
sir actually the function of the motor is to convert
electrical to mechnical energy but wat is the purpose of
commutator in dc motor.if we ll not give ac supply
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 1 Yes | 1 No |
Answer / anbuselvan.g
Motor is always convert Electrical power into Mechanical Power.
Here in DC motor, we just give AC supply as Electrical
Power, the Commutator will convert or rectify the AC into DC
to its windings.
It is also called as Rotating Rectifier.
The same function happen in DC generator which convert
Induced AC power in Armature into DC power to their loads.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 5 Yes | 8 No |
Answer / udhaya kumar
commutator reverses the flow of current.In order to develop
mechanical force.
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 4 Yes | 12 No |

Why to keep capacitor bank off while generator running.
WHERE to use CVT & PT.
generally in LT and MV motors we are using 3.5Coresx16,25,35,50 etc cable for supply.although motors is earthed at two point and having all protection.then why we are using that 1/2 core for earthing the motors.while in HT cable we are using only 3core cable for motor supply.generally lt and mv motors are delta connected and ht motors having star connection.whethere it is having any relation with winding connection( star or delta).all motors i am talking about are dol only.can anybody solve my confusion.thanks...
