A simple AC generators

Sinusoidal voltage sources

When a conductor rotates in a constant magnetic field, a sinusoidal wave is generated.

Single-phase system

When the loop is moving perpendicular to the lines of flux, the maximum voltage is induced.

When the conductor is moving parallel with the lines of flux, no voltage is induced.

Single-phase two-wire

Normal household: Single-phase three-wire

More pole pieces? More coils?

Advantages of a three-phase circuit

• Most of the electric power is generated and distributed in three-phase:

– Less/more than 3-phase required…taken from 3-phase

• The instantaneous power in a three-phase system can be constant (not pulsating):

– uniform power transfer and less vibration of three-phase machine

• The amount of power, the three-phase system is more economical that the single-phase.

• In fact, the amount of wire required for a three-phase system is less than that required for an equivalent single-phase system.

• To calculate power in an unbalanced three-phase system requires that we find the power in each phase.

• The total power is not simply three times the power in one phase but the sum of the powers in the three phases.
