The current is in-troduced by meansof brushes as vcommutator. C .-bon brushes are gen-erally used. A good design ofslip ring should pro-vide for air circula-tion underneath andbetween the rings. Ques. Whatform of spider isused on large alter-nators ? Ans. It is prac-tically the same form. Fig. — General Electric field coil, showing onemethod of winding. In the smaller machines thewire is wound on spools which are slipped over thepole pieces, which are built of sheet iron, spreading atthe pole face so as to secure not only a wide polar arcfor the proper distribution of the magnetic flux, butalso to hold the field windings in place.
