About This Product
Students identify the armature, commutator, magnet, sockets and shaft, connect a 3–6V DC supply to the sockets and switch on to watch the armature turn. Teachers point out how the commutator reverses the current during rotation, linking the observation to the force on a current-carrying conductor in a magnetic field. The magnet is moved only as the experiment guide allows.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. What does the commutator do?
It reverses the current direction in the armature as it rotates, which students can point out while the motor runs.
