Summary

Description
English: Compound-winding is a combination of the two methods shown in figs. 33 & 34, and was first used by S. A. Varley and by C. F. Brush. If a machine is in the first instance shunt-wound, and a certain number of series-turns are added, the latter, since they carry the external current, can be made to counteract the effect which the increased external current would have in lowering the voltage of the simple shunt machine.
