Fleming's right-hand rule


Fleming's right hand rule (for generators) shows the direction of induced current when a conductor moves in a magnetic field.

The right hand is held with the thumb, first finger and second finger mutually perpendicular to each other (at right angles), as shown in the diagram .
  • The Thumb represents the direction of Motion of the conductor.
  • The First finger represents the direction of the Field. (north to south)
  • The Second finger represents the direction of the induced or generated Current (the direction of the induced current will be the direction of conventional current; from positive to negative).
  • One particular way of remembering the rule is the "FBI" acronym for Force (or otherwise motion), B as the magnetic field sign and I as the current. The subsequent letters correspond to subsequent fingers, counting from the top. Thumb -> F; First finger -> B; Second finger -> I
  • There is also a Fleming's left hand rule (for electric motors). The appropriately handed rule can be recalled from the letter "g", which is in "right" and "generator".
