Induction motors are alternating current motors with rotors that are energized by induction. They are available with power ratings ranging from about 1/500 Hp (1.5 W) to 30,000 Hp (22MW). They are the dominant type of AC motor used in most of that power range. Squirrel-cage motors are, by far, the dominant type of induction motor.
