in the armature winding the current is broken by thecontact breaker, which is actuated by a cam, and a cur-rent of higher value is induced in the secondary windingof the transformer coil when the low voltage current is.passed through the primary winding. It will be noted that the points of the… … Transformer Coil-Magneto System 171 upon itself except when the contact points are separated.While the armature winding is thus short-circuited therewill be practically no generation of current. When thepoints are separated there is a sudden flow of currentthrough the primary winding of the…
