What is Plugging or Reverse Current Braking of DC Motor?
In Plugging or Reverse Current Braking, supply polarity of armature voltage of DC motor is reversed to rapid stop the motor. The armature voltage(V) and back EMF (Eb) acts in the same direction during plugging. In plugging motor exerts opposite torque to retard its speed. The application of the plugging is to immediately stop the DC motor or … Read more
