Frequently Asked Questions
What is a synchronous motor?
Unlike an asynchronous AC motor, a synchronous AC motor rotates at the same speed as the frequency of the AC power supply. In order to achieve this, the synchronous AC motor must be synchronized with the power supply using a feedback system. Read more..
What is an induction motor?
An induction motor is an AC electric motor in which the electric current in the rotor needed to produce torque is obtained by electromagnetic induction from the magnetic field of the stator winding.
How does an AFCI work?
AFCIs work by sensing when an arc fault is about to occur and then interrupting the flow of electricity before the arc can form. Read more..
What is a generator?
generators transform mechanical energy into electrical energy. The mechanism involved is similar to that of an alternator.. Read more..
