Do miniature through hole slip rings rotate with the coil?

Yes, slip rings rotate with the coil. The purpose of a slip ring is to allow a rotating coil to communicate with a fixed circuit. A slip ring is a mechanical device used to transfer power, electricity, or signals from a stationary component to a rotating one.

In an electrical machine such as a motor or a generator, miniature through hole slip rings themselves do not rotate with the coil. Instead, they are stationary components that provide a method for connecting the external circuit to the rotating
coil or rotor.

In machines such as wound-rotor induction motors or certain types of generators, the coil or winding is connected to the rotor, which rotates within the stator. The slip rings are mounted on the rotor and remain stationary with respect to the rotor's rotation. Brushes in contact with the slip rings facilitate the transfer of electrical power or signals between the stationary circuit and the rotating rotor.

The term "slip" in slip rings refers to the relative motion, or slip, between the rotating rotor and the stationary circuit. As the rotor turns, the through hole slip rings maintain a constant electrical connection with the brushes, allowing for the transfer of power or signals without the need for a direct wired connection that would be impeded by the rotating motion.

This design allows for continuous electrical connectivity to the rotating component—be it a rotor, armature, or other rotating part—enabling various electrical functions such as power supply, control, or data transmission in rotating machinery without the need for complex wiring arrangements that would hinder the rotational movement.
