INTRODUCTION
Electrical motors are the backbone of the electrified society and are
responsible for 2/3rd of electrical energy generated.
Problem: motors have high starting current and motors of sizes greater than
15hp causes problem in the lines.
Hence the written pole motor, a new technology have been proposed which
eliminates the need of three phase power.
MOTOR FAMILY TREE
LIMITATION OF CONVENTIONAL
TECHNOLOGY
Draws excessive start-up current (inrush): 6-12 times their normal running
current during start-up .
Machine must have even no. of poles and deviating from this condition
will cause unstability at its rated speed.
ABOUT
Developed by the Precise Power Corporation of Bradenton, Florida with
the support from Electric Power Research Institute(EPRI).
Available in sizes upto 100hp, and start and run without exceeding the
limits of distribution lines.
CHARACTERISTICS
Single-phase
Low starting current across-the-line
High efficiency
Reliable
Instant restart after momentary power interruption
Starts high inertia loads
Eliminates flicker & line sags
High power factor during start
High starting torque per amp
Simple design (No rotating windings)
Smooth (constant torque) start
CONSTRUCTION
ROTOR
The stator lamination stack is constructed using low loss electrical steel
laminations.
Contained within the stator structure and are located between the main
stator windings.

MODE
Start mode
Motor produces a large amount of hysteresis and induction torque which
helps to accelerate the motor to its rated speed.
The excitation coil is turned on when the motor reaches 80%- 90% of
rated speed.
The powerful excitation coil starts writing poles to the ferrite layer as the
rotor rotates.
Fig. 2 and 3 shows the poles are written into the magnetic layer in the
anticlockwise direction as the rotor rotates in the clockwise direction.
CONTD
The size and no. of poles generated are dependent on the rotational speed
of the machine AND the frequency of signal given to exciter coil.
Using the Written Pole motor to irrigate the same acres, the Trasks total
kW bill was $3,350.00 a savings of approximately 70%.
CONCLUSION
This unique product has applications virtually
anywhere that 3-phase power is either not
available, or is not economical to provide.
