SynchronousMachines
4-17 THREE-PHASE ROTATING FIELDS require three pairs of windings 120 apart energized by voltages that also have a 120 120 apart, 120degree phase displacement. SYNCHRONOUS MOTORS are specifically designed to maintain constant speed with the rotor synchronous to the rotating field speed, field. Synchronous motors require modification (such as squirrel-cage windings) to be self-starting.
