The above statement is True.
The split ring commutator is made of two pieces of copper that are held apart in the center so that they do not touch. They resemble a split copper ring in the middle. When split rings are used in an electric generator, the direction of the current flowing in the coil is reversed, and DC current is generated. In an alternating current generator, slip rings are the hollow rings that connect the ends of the armature coil. They aid in the rotation of the coil. They also make electric contact with the brushes.
