[QUOTE="OnOff, post: 462990, member: 16173"] I've always thought 3P easier to understand. Think of a motor looking on end. You've the rotor in the centre. That oddly enough rotates. The stator is the bit round the outside and that "stays" where it is. With a 3P motor you've 3 sets of windings. To understand the emf I like to think of each winding as a a solenoid spaced 120deg apart as they activate one after the other they give the rotor a little nudge round. [/QUOTE]
