The rotor doses andopens the magnetic circuit between the armature and field windings and therebyinduces current in the armature. 53. Field Rheostats.—A type of field rheostat supplied with motor gen-erators is shown in Fig. 68. A coil of composition resistance wire baked in a heatproof insulating cement ismounted in a metal case. Thewire is tapped at intervals and con-nected to brass studs over which asliding contact arm moves. An-other type used by the MarconiCompany has a number of turns ofbare resistance wire wound on aslate base. A sliding contact mov-ing over the turns permits veryclose regulation of the flow of cur-rent in the field winding. A rheo-stat of this type is essential formotor generators used withquenched spark transmitters whichrequire extremely close regulationof the generator voltage. 54.
