ABSTRACT
The electrical motor load is the major power-consuming load of electrical power systems. Motors of various sizes are used for purposes that range from large industrial machine operation to operating power blenders and mixers in the home. The function of a motor is to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy in the form of a rotary motion. To produce a rotary motion, a motor must have an electrical power input. Generator action is brought about by a magnetic field, a set of conductors within the magnetic field, and relative motion between the two. The interaction of these two magnetic fields results in the production of motion. The rotating effect produced by the interaction of two magnetic fields is called torque or motor action. The torque produced by a motor depends on the strength of the main magnetic field and the amount of current flowing through the conductors.
