At the four segments marked + or — contact is made withbrushes leading to the external circuit. By the right-handrule 10 the emf. in conductors under the N pole is toward theback end, so current flows into the armature at segment 3. Thebrush on that segment is therefore negative. The brush atsegment 7 is positive, because there the current flows out ofthe armature. Similar reasoning applied to the conductorsunder the S poles leads to the same result as to polarity of.

Ifa machine having more than two sets of brushes is examined,it will be found that all the positive brushes are joined by aheavy conductor and all the negative brushes by another. Thenone connection is made from the group of positive brushes tothe external circuit, and one from all the negative brushes. In speaking of alternators, the actual construction of arma-tures was described; that is, the use of machine-wound coils inslots in the face of a laminated core. armatures are made 10 See section 63, p. 153.
