and North‚ South and South) repel. The internal configuration of a DC motor is designed to harness the magnetic interaction between a current-carrying conductor and an external magnetic field to generate rotational motion. Let’s start by looking at a simple 2-pole DC electric motor (here red represents a magnet or winding with a "North" polarization‚ while green represents a magnet or winding with a "South" polarization). Every DC motor has six basic parts -- axle‚ rotor (a.k.a.‚ armature)‚ stator
