PART I
AC GENERATOR
Single-phase AC generator - designed to generate a single
sinusoidal voltage for each rotation of the shaft (rotor).
Polyphase AC generator - designed to generate multiple outof-phase sinusoidal voltages for each rotation of the rotor by
increasing the number of coils on the stator.
The three-phase generator has three induction coils placed 120
apart on the stator.
The three coils have an equal number of turns.
the voltage induced across each coil will have the same
peak value, shape, and frequency.
the three sinusoidal voltages are out of phase by 120
Two types of configuration: Wye (Y) or Delta ()
SINGLE-PHASE AC GENERATOR
THREE-PHASE AC GENERATOR
FARADAYS LAW
The physical or experimental law governing the operation of
and AC generator.
The electromotive force (EMF) induced in a circuit is directly
proportional to the time rate of change of magnetic flux through
the circuit.
The EMF can either be produced by changing B (induced EMF)
or by changing the area, e.g., by moving the wire (motional
EMF).

Z = Z a = Z b = Z c = 3Z Y
THREE-PHASE CONNECTIONS
Both the three phase source and the three phase load can be
connected either Wye or DELTA.
We have 4 possible connection types.
1)
Y-Y connection
2) Y- connection
3) - connection
4) -Y connection
Balanced connected load is more common.
Y connected sources are more common.
