2. Switched reluctance motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Switched_reluctance_motor

   The switched reluctance motor (SRM) is a type of reluctance motor. Unlike brushed DC motors , power is delivered to windings in the stator (case) rather than the rotor . This simplifies mechanical design because power does not have to be delivered to the moving rotor, which eliminates the need for a commutator .

3. Centrifugal switch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_switch

   A centrifugal switch is an electric switch that operates using the centrifugal force created from a rotating shaft, most commonly that of an electric motor or gasoline engine. The switch is designed to activate or de-activate as a function of the rotational speed of the shaft.

4. Electric motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_motor

   An industrial electric motor . An electric motor is a machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and electric current in a wire winding to generate force in the form of torque applied on the motor's shaft.

5. Magnetic starter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_starter

   Contactor with overload relay. A magnetic starter is an electromagnetically operated switch which provides a safe method for starting an electric motor with a large load. . Magnetic starters also provide under-voltage and overload protection and an automatic cutoff in the event of a power fai

6. ASCO Power Technologies - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ASCO_Power_Technologies

   ASCO (Automatic Switch Company) Power Technologies, a business unit of Schneider Electric, makes electrical equipment used in healthcare facilities, data centers, communication networks, commercial buildings, and industrial plants. ASCO also includes a Services branch, providing maintenance programs, modifications, upgrades, and emergency repairs.

7. Commutator (electric) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutator_(electric)

   A commutator is a rotary electrical switch in certain types of electric motors and electrical generators that periodically reverses the current direction between the rotor and the external circuit. It consists of a cylinder composed of multiple metal contact segments on the rotating armature of the machine.
