The induction machine, invented by Nikola Tesla in 1888, has become widely used for electromechanical energy conversion due to its ease of manufacture and robustness. It is available in power ratings from fractional horsepower to megawatts. As an AC electromechanical energy conversion device, the induction machine interfaces with the external world through two connections - a mechanical rotating shaft and electrical terminals to which a three-phase AC supply is connected. This module will discuss the three-phase induction machine, as single-phase induction machines are limited to small power levels.
