Will a DC shunt motor operated on an AC supply?
DC motor cannot run on AC source. It just stands still. But you may change the winding connection to form a series motor that can be run on both DC or AC power source.
You can run a DC motor (of the correct voltage) on AC if you use a full-wave rectifier to turn the AC into DC.
NO..it will run based on your country voltage for example in my country it will run 50Hz..that means it will change direction(clockwise-counterclockwise) in 0.02 second..U can't figure it because the movement is so fast.
