Hi,
I have a d.c compound motor,110v,25A draws a steady high current of 100A,when connected to the supply.What are the possible causes and remedy.
Thanks

Remedy is check the shunt field is a) carrying current b) of the correct polarity.

RE: Motor
Since the armature and series field resistances are low the armature current increases. See diagram below.
Check that you have current into this shunt field. If you check current is OK, then reverse F1 and F2 connections to make your field cummulative.

What is the load?
