Types of Electrical Machines

 The electric machines are of three main types, transformer, generator, and motor.

Electrical Transformer: In the transformer, both input and output are electrical power.
Electrical Generator: In a generator, the input is mechanical power and the output is electrical power.
Electrical Motor: In a motor, the input is electrical power and output is mechanical power.
Electrical Machines can also be categorized as static machine and dynamic machine.
The transformer is an example of static electrical machine.
Motor and generator both are dynamic electrical machine.
