What is meant by field loss in a DC motor?..

Answer / peter hone

Field loss is where field winding loses its residual
magnetism and can not operate. The process to reinstate the
magnetism is to flash the field...by flashing a small
battery across the field winding momentarily to regain the
magnetism...
Have done this on many occasions...it works!
