Electrical carbon brushes create a conductive connection between fixed electrical wiring and a rotating commutator or slip ring. The brush gradually wears during normal operation and should be inspected at appropriate maintenance intervals to preserve dependable machine performance and prevent damage to associated electrical components.
Using the correct brush dimensions, material grade and terminal arrangement can help reduce uneven wear, electrical arcing and deterioration of the rotating contact surface. During replacement, the brush holder, spring pressure, flexible lead and commutator or slip ring should also be checked for contamination, scoring, overheating or mechanical damage.
