Module 19B: Alternating Current Motors B (Optional)
Outcome
Investigate the operation and applications of shaded pole and universal motors and alternating current generators.
Indicators
(a) Identify the components of a shaded pole motor including the different windings on the shading coil.
(b) Explain how a rotating magnetic field is created using a shaded pole motor.
(c) Identify the components and windings of a universal motor.
(d) Compare the operation of an alternating current (AC) universal motor to a series direct current (DC) motor.
(e) Connect a universal motor to the correct operating voltage.
(f) Demonstrate how to change the direction of rotation of a universal motor.
(g) Compare starting torque of a universal motor with that of an induction motor.
(h) Provide examples of applications of shaded pole and universal motors.
(i) Differentiate between the operation of AC induction and synchronous generators.
(j) Provide examples (e.g., utility power transmission) of applications of AC generators.
