AC induction motor
An AC induction motor converts alternating current electricity into mechanical motion. It has two main parts: the stator (stationary part) with coils that generate a rotating magnetic field, and the rotor (moving part) that follows this field. When the stator's magnetic field rotates, it induces a current in the rotor (without direct electrical connection), causing the rotor to spin in the same direction. This process efficiently turns electrical energy into mechanical work, powering devices like fans, pumps, and appliances. Induction motors are popular for their durability, simplicity, and ability to operate reliably under various conditions.
