Abstract:
The move to green energy has become the focus of the 21st century, although the energy needs of the world have been on the increase, the need is now more urgent than ever to do away with fossil fuel. This study tackles these problems through the design and fabrication of a vital part of a comprehensive micropower plant, the electric generator. The design of the 5.5kW Induction generator involved the application of recycling, through the recycling of a discarded scrap motor, designed and rewound to give an output of 5.5kW, included in this study are the procedures, calculations leading up to the fabrication of the 5.5kW 3- phase Induction generator. The study was carried out in a way scaling up for higher outputs is possible through the use of the provided procedures and formula.
