What happens if commutator of DC generator is removed?

If the commutator is removed from your generator, you (if you connect slip rings) get AC supply instead of DC supply. the function of the commutator is to convert AC to DC supply and vice versa.Additional AnswerRemoving the commutator will also prevent you from connecting the output of the generator to its load. Remember, the generator's armature is spinning!


What is the function of a commutator in DC generator?

All types of generators induce EMF in sinusoidal wave form. (A.C.) In a D.C. generator the function of a commutator is to convert A.C. EMF into D.C. The commutator rectifies the output that is the alternating current so as to produce unidirectional alternating current (pulsating DC). This reverses the negative polarity current to a positive one so as the output is a pulsating DC.

Why do you have to hit your starter motor to get your 1996 Mercury Villager to start what is problem?

the starter is bad and has an internal short That answer is simplistic. On my '98, for months I could hit the starter and make it work. When I actually removed and disassembled the starter, one of the brushes was worn out. Hitting the starter moved it just enough to contact the commutator. Installed new brushes three years ago and haven't had any problems since.

How do you replace the starter motor brushes in a 1997 Toyota Camry v6 conquest xv20 series?

Its not worth replacing the starter motor brushes on any car. By the time the brushes are worn, there is probably other wear and tear to the bearings, the commutator, and the windings. Better to just replace the starter. Same deal with the brushes in an alternator.
