Interme-diate poles of opposite polarity will therefore be formedbetween them, thus producing an 8-pole field as , however, a 4-pole field is desired, windings 1-2 and2-3 are placed in series by connecting terminals 1 and 3 to 8 16 POLES POLES L^L.

The intermediate poles will then disappear, re-sulting in a 4-pole field. Fig. 45 shows the schematic ar-rangement and the controller connections for simultaneouslychanging the number of poles of all three stator phases. RAILWAY MOTOR CONTROL. 99 (c) Cascade Method. The third method of three-phaseinduction motor control consists in operating two motorsin cascade. In the cascade connection, or concatenation,of two induction motors, the rotors of both machines aremounted on the same shaft or otherwise mechanicallycoupled as by gears or connecting rods. The primary ofthe first motor is connected to the line and its secondaryis connected to the primary of the second motor. Thesecondary windings of the latter machine are short-cir-cuited through su
