Course Overview

The AC/DC Motor Theory course was specifically developed for electricians and electronic technicians as well as for the multi-craft training needs of process and manufacturing facilities. This course consists of 11 interactive, on-line lessons that address AC and DC motor theory.

Module Overview

The eighth lesson in the AC/DC Motor Theory Course, this lesson demonstrates armature reaction, compensation, and induced voltage.

Module Objectives

Explain how armature reaction shifts the neutral plane in a DC motor.

• Explain how armature reaction affects motor operation.
• Explain what measures will correct armature reaction.
• List the requirements for induced voltage in a motor.
• Explain counter-EMF.
