ABSTRACT:
Destructive effects of shaft currents that are generated by residual magnetic fields in the stator or rotor are minimized by shaft grounding brushes that are positioned to contact a shaft surface and that are grounded externally of the machine. These brushes are desirably held by gravity against the shaft and with an indicator when maximum permissible wear has occurred on the brush.
