Types of DC Armature Windings:-

1. Lap Winding

Lap winding is used for low-voltage, high-current machines. In this type of winding, the end
of one coil is connected to the start of the next coil situated under the same pole.

2. Wave Winding

Wave winding is used for high-voltage, low-current machines. In this type of winding, the
end of one coil is connected to the start of another coil, but the connection is made to a coil
under the next pole.

Key Differences between Lap and Wave Winding

Feature Lap Winding Wave Winding


Voltage and Current Low voltage, high current High voltage, low current
Number of Parallel
Equal to the number of poles (P) Typically two
Paths
Coils connected to adjacent Coils connected under next
Connection
segments poles
Efficiency Lower than wave winding Higher efficiency
Applications Low-voltage applications High-voltage applications
