How does a compensating winding help in improving the commutation of a DC motor?
It has no effect on the commutation process
It increases the armature reaction, causing more distortion of the main field
It reduces the speed of the motor
It produces a magnetic field that counteracts the armature reaction, reducing the distortion of the main field and improving the commutation process.
