Introduction to motors, generators & hybrid (Spanish)

This solution allows students to investigate the electrical principles behind motors and generators and is designed to support the teaching of a range of automotive units. Students who need to understand how hybrid vehicles function will need to go through the experiments in this solution. Curriculum, including experiments and teachers notes, is available from our resources page.

Topics covered include:

• Motor principles
• The electric motor
• Generator principles
• A closer look at generators
• Transformer principles
• Practical transformers
• Half wave rectifier
• Full wave rectifier
• Zener diodesThis solution allows students to investigate the electrical principles behind motors and generators and is designed to support the teaching of a range of automotive units.
