Frequently Asked Questions
What is Ohm’s Law?
Ohm’s law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the potential difference across the two points. In other words, the higher the voltage, the higher the current. 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 AC differ from DC?
Direct current (DC) is an electric current that flows in one direction only. This means that the voltage of a DC signal does not change over time. DC signals are typically generated by batteries or solar cells.
Alternating current, on the other hand, is generated by power plants and flows through the power grid to homes and businesses. Read more..
What is an AC motor?
An AC motor is an electric motor that uses alternating current (AC) instead of direct current (DC). AC motors are more efficient than DC motors and can be found in a variety of applications, including fans, pumps, and compressors. Read more..
