DYNAMO-ELECTRIC MACHINES. 241 in the line is generally followed by the cessation of current in the armature when a series-machine is employed; but in this system a break in the external circuit causes the generationof a heavy current in the armature, which, if not prevented, would eventually cause itsdestruction. To avoid this, the apparatus shown is employed, and its function is to short-circuit the armature. By this means the counter-electromotive force generated in the arma-ture is such as to cut down the lieavy current to the normal strength, so that no dangerousheating of the armature-coils can take place, The apparatus is so constructed that an excessof electromotive force generated in the armature, such as would be caused by a break in theline, causes a spark to pass between two points ; this allows sufficient current tq pass to ener-gize the solenoid, which pulls up its core and makes conta
