Definitions for "Single Phase"
2 wire AC Circuit
A single-phase alternating current system has a single voltage in which voltage reversals occur at the same time and are of the same alternating polarity through the system.
The electrical power supplied to equipment or small motors, normally under 7 1/2 Horsepower. Sleeve Bearing- Used on open motors. Sleeve bearings are made of bronze bushings, plain or sleeve, and may be lubricated in two different ways: Wick system- uses a well or reservoir in the end bell. Slip ring system- ring lubricating method a brass ring rests on the motor shaft through a slot in the top of the bearing. As the shaft turns the ring turns slowly and the wet portion lubricates the bearing.
