This document outlines the course content for an Electrical Machines course. The course is divided into 4 modules that cover various topics related to DC machines, 3-phase induction machines, synchronous machines, and fractional kilowatt motors. Module I discusses DC generators and motors, armature reaction, commutation, and operating characteristics. Module II covers induction motors as transformers, equivalent circuits, torque-slip characteristics, and speed control. Module III examines synchronous machine construction, excitation, armature reaction, parallel operation, and starting. Module IV focuses on single-phase induction motors, servo motors, stepper motors, and brushless DC motors. The course includes numerical problems to be solved in tutorial classes. Suggested textbooks are also listed.
