certain frequency. The standard frequencies today are60 and 25 in this country. For 60 cycles, the number of poles mul-tiplied by the speed in revolutions per minute must equal 7200,while for 25 cycles their product must always equal 3000. In belted alternators the speeds usually fall between 1800… … Fig. 119.
