AC/DC Motor
Product Code : JL-LE-10620
The AC/DC Motor (SKU JL-LE-10620, Cat. No. JSS-455/072) lets students compare an AC generator with a DC generator on one machine. The front of the apparatus has brushes that collect direct current through a split ring (commutator), while the back has brushes that collect alternating current, so the two outputs of the same rotating coil can be shown side by side.
