The object of the ammeters in series withthe short circuited brushes was to give the current cir-culating through the generator brushes but not accountedfor in the load circuit, Vhen operating the machine at no load, the ammetersin the short circuited brush circuits showed no , irtien the load was thrown on the circulating cur-rent reached a value of ten per cent of the output. Thiswas caused by a difference of potential between shortcircuited brushes, due to the shifting of the commutat-ing plane with respect to the brush positio
