Induction motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy to mechanical energy. This type of electrical motor, which can be found in any home appliance, such as ceiling fan, washing machine, mixer and automation, it can be transformed into alternator. The ceiling fan motor is a single phase induction motor and can be transformed to an alternator. This alternator is easy to be made, simple to handle and operate. It was a good exercise for students during transformation of these induction motor into generator and it make students easy to understand the knowledge of the electrical theory. Student can apply the knowledge theory by transforming these induction motor into generator. The purpose of this project is to give an idea on how to make simple energy generator that can generate electric. Energy that generated by these alternator can be stored in battery.
