Single Phase Motor
A single-phase electric motor uses a single-phase power supply to convert electric energy into mechanical energy. It contains two wires (one hot wire and one neutral wire) and uses a single alternating voltage. Since it only generates an alternate field, it needs a capacitor for startup.
Single-phase motors are commonly employed for equipment requiring lower horsepower (10 hp or less) or small units. They are mainly used in residential or non-industrial facilities, such as homes, offices, and small businesses. Examples of common uses include air conditioners, compressors, door opening/closing systems, small drills, fans, pumps, and refrigerators.
