A brush direct current motor has a stator with a plurality of coils that correspond to N phases, a rotor with 2P magnet poles and a current converting device for converting direct current power to N phases current and carrying the N phases of alternating current for the coils of the stator. The current converting device has a plurality of first and second bars alternately arranged with transiting plates along a brush path. Resistors connect the transiting plates to one of the adjacent bars.
