AC Motor

An AC motor is a device that converts alternating current (AC) electrical energy into mechanical motion. It works using electromagnetic principles, where the AC current creates a rotating magnetic field inside the motor. This rotating field interacts with a stationary part called the rotor, causing it to spin and produce rotational movement. AC motors are commonly used in appliances, industrial machines, and HVAC systems because they are reliable, efficient, and can operate directly from standard power supplies without complex control systems. Their design allows smooth, consistent motion suitable for various applications.
