-2- Contd.

With an equal conductor pitch, each pitch would be 27. This will not do, however, as, owing to the use of two coils per slot, the coils would not be in the correct positions in relation to the slots.

Hence pitch must be 25 on coils and 29 on the commutator connections, or,

1 + 25 -> 26 + 29 -> 55 + 25 -> 80 + 29 -> 109

the lap coil which is afterwards inserted being excluded in this numbering.
