The distance between the poles and the core is thuslimited to the small gap required for the safe revolving of the armature. The magneticresistance and the magnetic circuit are by this means reduced in a high degree, and con-sequently the magnetizing power necessary for creating the required magnetism in thearmature is also Fig. 74.—Multipolar armature.
