Motor Poles Calculator

Calculate the number of poles in different types of motors based on frequency and speed

Poles Calculator

Motor Type

Frequency (Hz)

Standard frequencies: 50 Hz (Europe/Asia) or 60 Hz (North America)

Please enter a valid frequency

Speed (RPM)

Enter the rated or synchronous speed of the motor

Please enter a valid speed

Slip (%)

Typical slip values: 3-5% for standard induction motors

The number of poles in a motor determines its synchronous speed at a given frequency. More poles result in slower speed but higher torque.
