An armature is a crucial component of various electrical machines, particularly in motors and generators. It can be defined as the part of the machine that carries the current and interacts with the magnetic field to produce motion (in motors) or to generate electrical energy (in generators). ### In Electric Motors: In an electric motor, the armature is typically a rotating component (often referred to as the rotor) that consists of coils of wire wound around a core.
