How does the winding type affect the generated current and voltages?
How Winding Types (Wave or Lap) Affect Generated Current and VoltageThe type of winding (wave or lap) has a significant impact on the current and voltage generated by motors or transformers. Different winding types exhibit distinct characteristics in terms of magnetic field distribution, current path, inductance, and resistance. Below are the main differences between wave windings and lap windings and their effects on current and voltage:Wave WindingFeatures Connection Method: In wave windings,
