 Types of Motors
1.Based on type of voltage supply:
• AC Motors.
• DC Motors.

2.Based on level of voltage :

 24 V : Home appliances, copier/printer machine, hair dryer, footbath, and stick
massager
 230V : House hold pumps, Home appliances etc.

 415 V
 3.3 KV
 6.6KV Industrial application
 11KV
 33 KV
 Types of Motors
1. DC motors
2. AC motors
 SYNCHRONOUS MOTORS
 INDUCTION MOTORS
 3 PHASE INDUCTION MOTORS
 SQUIRAL CAGE INDUCTION MOTOR
(Fixed Rotor Resistance)
 SLIP RING INDUCTION MOTOR
(Variable Rotor Resistance)
• Squirrel Cage Induction Motors
• This is a type of three phase induction motor which functions based on the principle of
electromagnetism.
• It is called a ‘squirrel cage’ motor because the rotor inside of it – known as a ‘squirrel cage
rotor’ – looks like a squirrel cage.
