Briefly describe the CEMF levels that occur with the changes in motor armature rotation.

What will be an ideal response?


When there is no current in the circuit, the motor armature is motionless and the CEMF is zero. The starting current is very high because only the ohmic resistance of the armature limits the current. As the armature starts to rotate, the CEMF increases and the line current decreases. When the speed stops increasing, the value of the CEMF approaches the value of the applied voltage but is never equal to it.
