I was looking at designing a variable speed controller for the motor on my woodturning lathe. Nothing is ever simple.
Whilst doing some research I came across an article by Kevin Brady who explains in clear and digestible detail, all about Horsepower, watts and amps ratings of AC motors, and the complete pack of lies that some sales and marketing people try to dump on us when it comes to claims about how powerful the motors in their gizmos are.
It's well worth a read.
