Marine Electrical Systems USCG Question #759 (Set 26)

In a series wound motor, the current passing through the field windings also passes through what component?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option B — armature

In a series wound DC motor, the armature is connected directly in series with the field windings. Consequently, the entire total armature current passes sequentially through the series field windings, producing strong magnetic fluxes proportional to the load current.
