![]() ![]() Therefore, true to our tip, on smaller shunt field windings you would expect a bigger resistance reading. The shunt field windings are also randomly wound around the same pole piece as the series winding but consist of much smaller strands of wire when compared to the series and armature windings. By relatively large we mean that if you look at an individual strand of copper wire that makes up the armature or series winding, the diameter or circular mils of the strand is larger when compared to the shunt field windings. The stationary series windings are randomly wound around the pole pieces and are also relatively large. ![]() The rotating armature windings, connected to the commutator, are relatively large and in many industrial DC motors are form wound. The smaller the wire size the bigger the resistance. When it comes to measuring winding resistance, remember our tip that smaller is bigger. Recording a winding resistance value on these components is a common practice during de-energized motor testing for trending or troubleshooting. Energizing these two primary components of the DC motor creates two magnetic fields that push or pull each other to make the armature rotate. DC motors are relatively simple machines consisting of an armature winding (rotating) and shunt/series windings (stationary). ![]()
