Electrical Machines: Motor Components and Types

The device responsible for converting the DC current from the battery to AC for the armature.

A type of brushless motor known for its high rotational speed (RPM) but limited torque output.

The formula that calculates the power delivered in an AC circuit, considering both the voltage and current.

A device designed to measure the electric current flowing through a circuit.

Atoms that carry an electric charge, either positive or negative due to the gain or loss of electrons.

The speed at which an alternator generates electricity, measured in rotations per minute (RPM).

Machines like generators and motors that convert energy between mechanical and electrical forms, using rotating components.

A device designed to measure the voltage difference across two points in a circuit.

The minimum voltage that can be dangerous to humans, causing electric shock.

The process of generating high electrical potential (voltage) through friction, without the flow of electric current.

A type of battery where the chemical reactions that generate electricity are irreversible, meaning they cannot be recharged.

The fundamental principle behind the operation of all generators: the creation of electrical current by moving a conductor through a magnetic field.
