Lap windings has four current paths, the same as the number of the field poles, while the Wave windings has only two paths, regardless of the number of poles. Lap windings are also used for applications requiring lower voltages at higher currents, while Wave windings are used for applications requiring higher voltages at lower currents

Lap winding and wave winding?
Both lap winding and wave winding are found in the use of DC generators. The main difference is as follows: lap winding is high current, low voltage, and wave winding is low current, high voltage.
What is parallel path in dc machine?
This describes the way the machine's armature conductors are connected relative to each other and to the number of poles. The two basic ways of connecting these conductors are called 'lap' and 'wave', but it gets more complicated, because these, in turn, can be connected 'simplex', 'duplex', 'triplex', etc.For lap windings, if there are p poles, then for:simplex: pduplex: 2ptriplex: 3petc.For wave windings, the number of parallel paths are:simplex: 1 x 2duplex: 2 x 2triplex: 3x 2etc.So, for a triplex lap winding machine with six poles, the number of parallel paths will be: 3p =3 x 6 = 18 parallel paths.

what is Lap winding and wave winding?
The ends of lap windings are connected to adjacent segments of the machine's commutator, whereas wave windingsare connected between segments that are some distance apart. This results in lap windings having 2p parallel paths, where p represents the number of pole pairs; whereas a wave winding has just two parallel paths.

In motor winding what is the difference between a lap winding and a wave winding?
When electricians and electrical engineers/repairmen are called upon to assess troubles in generators and motors, they often rewind different types of these machines. There are two families of armature (closed-circuit) windings: lap winding and wave winding, described by the commutator pitch used for winding. In mechanical terms, armature windings consist of coils connected to a commutator in Read more....direct-current machines; or coils are connected together in alternating-current machines to form groups or series.Lap winding, also called parallel or multiple winding, is the process of winding elements or coils lapping back when wound on armature cores. Lap circuits are connected in parallel between brushes. The front and back pitches are odd with opposite signs. Winding pitch equals the algebraic sum of the front and back pitches. The end of a coil is connected to the commutator and the start of the next coil under the same two poles. Single-lap windings always have the same number of current paths as field poles while double-lap windings have twice as many current paths as field poles. Triple-lap windings have three times the number of current paths as field poles.The zig-zag or wavy path of winding through slots of armatures defines single (two-circuit) wave windings and multiplex (series-parallel) windings. Half of the armature coils is connected in series and the other half is connected in parallel between brushes, no matter the number of poles. Winding pitch is equal to the sum of the front and back pitches, which both must be odd with the same sign. The end of a coil is joined to the armature and the beginning of another under the next two poles. A single-wave winding has two current paths between brush sets. The double-wave winding has four current paths between brush sets; and the triple-wave winding has six current paths.Wave winding is used mostly in small and medium sized machines (500-600 volts) for keeping the number of coils as small as possible. Applications requiring high voltages at low currents use wave windings while lap windings are used for lower voltage, higher current applications. Wave windings, for a given number of poles and armature conductors, give more emf (electric and magnetic fields) than lap windings.Examples of suitable symmetrical armature windings for DC-machines with different poles are: for two-pole machines, two-circuit lap winding is preferred over wave winding; for four-pole machines, two-circuit wave winding or four-circuit lap winding is suggested. Six-pole machines should use two-circuit wave or six-circuit lap winding since four-circuit wave winding is asymmetrical.

How do you define the difference between lap siding and dutch lap siding?
I believe the Dutch Lap is the one with the beveled edge at the top of the board, which creates shadow lines. The board lays flat on the vertical. Lap siding has flat boards overlapping each other on an angle. Beaded lap has a rounded, beaded edging detail at the bottom of the board. The boards lay on a slight angle overlapping each other.
