🔍 Key Concepts

• Role of bearing insulation in generators and motors • How shaft currents are created and where they try to flow • Effects of electrical current passing through metal-to-metal contact surfaces like bearings or brushes

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens electrically if the shaft, bearings, and frame are all at the same potential with no insulation. Where can unintended current flow? • Which of the options specifically mentions a problem that involves current paths through the rotating shaft and metal structure, rather than heat in windings or wear on brushes? • If you insulate one bearing from the housing, what electrical path are you interrupting, and which choice describes that path most precisely?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options involve current paths through the shaft or bearings versus those involving brushes or windings • Ask yourself: does insulating a bearing directly reduce mechanical wear on brushes, or is it mainly about electrical isolation? • Verify which option explicitly refers to currents associated with the shaft and frame, not general leakage or heating
