Commutator?

[edit]

Does this thing have a commutator? Andy Dingley (talk) 23:49, 7 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Yes, it does have a commutator. It had to have a commutator as electroplating is only possible with direct current and there were no solid state or mercury arc rectifiers at the time. SirHaydn 314 (talk) 23:26, 30 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Obvious

[edit]

It should be obvious the article fails to describe the basics of this device. I get that it produced DC (what amperage? what voltage?) but from what (motive) power source(s)? Steam, horse/mule, water, wind, manpower?174.130.71.156 (talk) 21:37, 21 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
