  • Abstract
    The wear characteristics Of metal graphite brushes on copper slip-rings are described in this paper. The influence of different parameters on wear and contact resistance is explained by means of the mechanism of current conduction. Wear as well as contact resistance is determined by the mechanism of current conduction. Therefore, it is possible to measure the wear by determining the contact resistance. Thus life tests can be shortened considerably.
