Note 10 — Chapter LIII · CONVERTERS

NOTE.—In the Burnham split pole rotary converter, each pole is divided into only two sections, one larger than the other. A main shunt winding is arranged on the large sections, and a winding for providing the voltage regulation is placed on the other section. When the current is sent through this latter winding in one direction the voltage is raised, when in the other direction the voltage is lowered.
