helllo this is my first post to this site i hope this is the right place for this question. i have acquired a huge collection of squirrel cage electric motors and i was thinking that i could make a generator out of these but i need more information about how to go about it. I have about 40 of them ranging from 110v-430v motors. rmp rating from 730-3400. HP ranging from 1/8-3 HP. I have read that i can use them as a generator as long as they are spinning faster than their "rated" speed. How much faster can i spin them before i damage the motor? Do i need to add more "running" capacitors to the motors to use them as a generator? If I use a 230v motor is that the voltage it will output? thanks for any input!
