Which outcome occurs when a large DC motor's commutating circuit fails during operation?

💡 Explanation

When the commutating circuit fails, spark suppression is lost, causing excessive arcing because the induced EMF is not controlled during segment switching, degrading insulation. Therefore, armature coil insulation breakdown results, rather than over-excitation, reverse torque, or bearing fatigue which would require different power supply problems.
