Introduction
Electric machines interconvert electric and mechanical energy. Generator converts mechanical energy (e.g. from an engine) to electric energy. Motor converts electric energy to mechanical energy. Transformer converts ac electric energy at one voltage level to another voltage level. All three depend on the action of a magnetic field.

The Magnetic Field


A current-carrying wire produces a magnetic field in the area around it. A time-changing magnetic field induces a voltage in coil of wire through which it passes (transformer action). A current-carrying wire in the presence of a magnetic field has a force induced on it (motor action). A moving wire in the presence of a magnetic field has a voltage induced in it (generator action).

Right Hand Rule


The direction of the magnetic flux lines can be found by placing the thumb of the right hand in the direction of conventional current flow and noting the direction of the fingers (commonly called the right hand rule).
