    Stator
    The `stator` is the stationary part of an electric motor or alternator. Depending on the configuration of the motor the stator may act as the `field magnet`, interacting with the armature to create motion. The stator may be either a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. Electromagnetic stators are used in wound field DC motors. The non-stationary part on an electric motor is the rotor. Where the stator is an electromagnet, the coil which energi...
