Advances in material attributes, and construction features of Direct Current Motors have
evolved over many decades. The slow... steady decline of D.C. motor applications has also
marked a trend toward fewer articles written about these types of machines.
The PDF file attachment is photo-copied printed literature from a General Electric publication
reprinted from October and December, 1951, and January and February 1952, Issues of
RAILWAY MECHANICAL AND ELECTRICAL ENGINEER.
While the emphasis of the article(s) pertain to railway equipment of a time period 64 some years ago,
the wisdom contained is very much still useful today in troubleshooting, and maintaining D.C. motors.
I’d even gingerly say the tone, or style of writing and the illustrations contained exceed what one would
find in a twenty-first century EASA article.
Enjoy!
