types of overload protection

• Locked rotor damage • Fuses • Circuit Breakers • Thermal-overload Devices • Bimetallic devices

disadvantages to AC motors

• Speed control is simpler and accurate in DC motors: - The speed of DC motors is much easier to control simply by turning the supply voltage up or down. DC: Excellent for variable speed operations. In AC motors the speed depends on the frequency of the alternating current that drives it. It needs a variable-frequency drive to control the speed. • Though relatively simple, induction motors can be fairly heavy and bulky because of their coil windings. • Unlike DC motors, AC motors can't be driven from batteries or any other source of DC power (solar panels, for example) without using an inverter (a device that turns DC into AC). That's because AC motors need a changing magnetic field to turn the rotor.

__________________ motors are BY FAR the most common "prime movers" in the world. They are used in a wide variety of industrial, household, and shop tools and/or appliances . . .

Single-phase AC

motor installation and protection

- Dedicated circuit - Adjustable, slowtripping branch current protection - Stop/Start Pushbutton Control - Run protection - Set to motor "service factor" (125% or 1.25 for example)

universal motors

- Can operate on either AC or DC: • Typically series wound • Used for light loads due to large amount of sparking at the brushes • Small fans • Powered Drill

High accuracy in position control through DC Servo (Stepper) Motors:

- Must be paired with controllers which provide closed loop control about: • Speed • Degrees of rotation (armature position in tenths of a degree)

Speed Regulation:

- Some motors develop full power under load - Other motors must be brought up to speed before a load is applied.

Application of permanent magnet DC motors

Starter motor in automobiles, windshield wipers, washer, for blowers used in heaters and air conditioners, to raise and lower windows, it also extensively used in toys. Because of its permanent magnet, these motors are used where there is no need of speed control of motor by means of controlling its magnetic field.

_______ means the speed of the stator's rotating magnetic field.

Synchronous speed

advantages of AC motors

• The biggest advantage of AC induction motors is their sheer simplicity. They have only one moving part, the rotor, which makes them low-cost, quiet, long-lasting, and relatively trouble free. (more reliable) DC motors, by contrast, have a commutator and carbon brushes that wear out and need replacing from time to time. The friction between the brushes and the commutator also makes DC motors relatively noisy (and sometimes even quite smelly). • DC motors are more vulnerable to harsh industrial settings (dust, explosives). AC can be operated in explosive atmospheres. • AC power lines can be found everywhere. Most motors are AC. • Higher power factor: input power/output power less current used to do the same work

The magnitude of the voltage produced in all generators is dependent on a number of factors:

• The strength of the magnetic field • The speed at which the conductor cuts the magnetic field (armature rotational speed) • # of conductor loops (or conductor length) within the magnetic field
