the gen-erator and the storage battery. The contacts are closed and opened at contacts C(see Figure 22). When the engine is started the generator voltage builds up, andwhen it reaches about 7 volts a current passing through the voltage winding pro-duces enough magnetism to overcome the tension… … ■o O o FIG. 23 The current then flowing through the coarse winding increased the pull on thearmature and gives a good contact of low resistance at the contact points. Whenthe generator slows down and its voltage drops below that of the storage battery,the battery sends a reverse current through the…
