Field Polarities of DC
Machines

The diagram above shows the
polarity of interpoles with respect to the polarity of the main poles.
For a motor, the polarity of the interpole is the same as that of the main
pole preceding it in the direction of rotation.
For a generator, the polarity of the interpole is the same as that of the
main pole following it in the direction of rotation.
