Abstract: The power source and the nonlinear loads on transmission line are major sources of harmonics and if these harmonics are not controlled, they could lead to heat loss, break down of machines and reducing the efficiency of any machine connected to the supply. The non-sinusoidal currents from the power source increase harmonic contents in the gap of electrical machines with pole pitch winding which will lead to excessive losses, vibration and noise. This paper presents the use of fractional pitch winding technique for the stator of three phase motor for the purpose of suppressing harmonics. This is investigated between two wingdings of pole-pitch and short-pitch and results simulated using Emetor Electric Motor Software.
