Alternating
Current - AC
• AC is produced when a coil of wire turns in a
magnetic field
• ½ turn current is moving in one direction
• Then ½ turn it moves in the other direction
• IF 3 coils of wire are wrapped around a core –
they rotate 1/3 (120º apart) – then 3 different
AC currents are generated

– Semi Conductor
• Allows current to only
flow in one direction
• Most common type

AC – single phase
• Only ½ of cycle usable
• By converting other ½
more useful
• Draw back –
• 100% ripple
• (0-100-0) output

results in three overlapping sine waves
3 + pulses & 3 - pulses occur in the length of time of one complete
cycle (1/60s)
each wave can be rectified (3Ø6p)
pulses overlap reducing voltage ripple & Vmin
15
3 PHASE – MORE EFFICIENT
16
3Ø comparison to 1Ø
• 3Ø more efficient than 1Ø
• 3Ø requires more complex circuitry
• 3Ø more expensive to install
17
(3 Φ ) 3 PHASE
• LESS RIPPLE
• MORE EFFIECIENT OUTPUT
• HIGH FREQUENCY – 1% RIPPLE
• MOST EFFIEICENT – VERY EXPENSIVE
18
VOLTAGE RIPPLE
• 100 % RIPPLE
• 4 – 10 % RIPPLE
