Sounds like the same principle as RPC (rotary phase convertor) for 1ph to 3ph conversions? I have built these also in order to power 3ph motor equipment, but find the VFD a better approach.a friend of mine sells wind generator kits, using 3 phase induction motors. they get their excitation vrom the ac line, and have no permanant magnets on them anywhere. a lot of the small generators sold in stores use induction motors too, with fairly large value caps to help the residual magnetism build up current to generate as stand alone generators.
