DC, or direct current is the electricity that flows in a single direction within a circuit or motor. AC, or alternating current, is the electricity that flows back and forth. The main components of an AC induction motor are the rotor and the stator. The motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy when the rotor is pulled by the fluctuating magnetic field in the stator. This course will discuss single-phase and three-phase motor construction and operation.
•Describe alternating and direct current (AC and DC)
•Describe single and three-phase power
•Describe single-phase motor construction and operation
•List and define the different types of single-phase motors
•Describe three-phase motor construction and operation
•Describe the differences between single-phase and three-phase motors
