what is the function of commutator in dc motor? ..

Answer / anbuselvan.g

Motor is always convert Electrical power into Mechanical Power.

Here in DC motor, we just give AC supply as Electrical
Power, the Commutator will convert or rectify the AC into DC
to its windings.

It is also called as Rotating Rectifier.

The same function happen in DC generator which convert
Induced AC power in Armature into DC power to their loads.
