Abstract :
The transient induced voltage across the interpole and compensating windings of d-c motors or generators on short circuit or flashover provide a quick and convenient means of actuating circuit breaker or other protective devices. Such means have made possible quicker tripping times than are obtained with the conventional series overload or reverse current protection.
