Abstract
Similarly to any other industrial country, electric motors are extensively used in Brazil to produce stationary motive force. Relatively low cost as compared to other motors, large range of power capacity and no emission of pollutants were the main inducing forces for the rapid spread of electric motors in the economy: They required lower investments, were clean and provided flexibility to organize the workshop floor.
