Description

What is a singlephase motor? A singlephase motor is an electrically-powered rotary machine that can turn electric energy into mechanical energy. It works by using a singlephase power supply. They contain two types of wiring: hot and neutral. Their power can reach 3Kw and supply voltages vary in unison.

single phase induction motor consists of a single phase winding on the stator and a cage winding on the rotor. When a 1 phase supply is connected to the stator winding, a pulsating magnetic field is produced. In the pulsating field, the rotor does not rotate due to inertia.
