what is meant by armature reaction?

Answer Posted / pallavi

The effect of magnetic field set up by armature current on
the distributon of flux under main poles of a generator.
The armature magnetic field has two effects (i) it
demagnetises or weakens the main flux and (ii)it cross-
magnetises or distors it. The first effect leads to
reduced generated voltage and the second to the sparking at
the brushes.
