Tesla winds on armature c a second set ofcoils B ij intermediate to tlie first, or, in other words, in such po-sitions that while the coils of one set are in the relative j»ositionsto the pol?s of the field-magnet to produce the maximum current,those of the other set will be in the position in which they pro-duce the minimum cui-reiit.
