Introduction to electric motors and motor data plate

Definition and introduction of electric motors

  Electric motors are devices that convert electrical energy into mechanical energy.  These motors are used in a wide range of applications, from small household appliances to industrial equipment.  An electrical engineer works on the basis of Faraday's law of electromagnetic stimulation, according to which a general electrical current through a magnetic conductor results in a mechanical force.


Electrical components:

1. **Stator**: It is the fixed part of the motor that contains the electrical windings.  Create a magnetic field.


 2. **The rotor (rotor)**: It is the moving part inside the motor that is connected as a result of the interaction of the magnetic field of the stator with the electric current.


 3. **Windings(s)**: Wires coated with the magnetic field attached to the wire when an electric current passes.


 4. **Structure (Framework)**: The nutrients that contain the nutrients.


 5. **Bracket(s)**: Supports the rotor and reduces synchronization during busy period.


 6. **Carbon brushes (brushes)**: In a rotary motor, it radiates electricity to the windings on the rotor.

Motor data:

It has a small crank plate designed to contain powerful information about the engine, and helps in correctly identifying its new characteristics.  It usually contains the following information:


 1. **Electrical power (energy)**: Measured in watts (W) or kilowatts (kW) and determines the amount of energy that can be generated.


 2. **Voltage**: Shows the voltage that must be applied to the motor to operate.


 3. **Electrical current (current)**: Determines the amount of electrical current that the motor draws when it is running.


 4. ** Reverse Speed ​​(Speed) **: The main speed of the writer is measured per minute (RPM) and determines the speed of the rotor.


 5. **Frequency (Frequency)**: It is measured in Hertz (Hz) and determines the frequency of the electrical current used.


 6. **Motor Type (Type)**: Specifies the type of motor (such as AC DC motor or DC motor).


 7. **Power Factor**: Shows the electrical details of the motor.


 8. **Protection Degree (IP Rating)**: The level of protection against harmful factors such as the outdoors.


 This information helps to use the engine correctly and its technical specifications.
