Abstract: This paper presents a new model of self-excited single-phase induction generator, used by a three-phase machine for lighting animal farm through biogas energy. The designs and applications of the previous generator models have been found to be very complex, for this reason simple and effective model of SEIG is proposed. The transient equations of the proposed model were represented by SIMULINK blocks, while the steady state equations by electrical equivalent circuit. The model is derived from Steinmetz connection circuit, stationary reference frame qd-axes theory and symmetrical component theorem. Experimental and simulation using MATLAB are the two methods used to prove the validity of the present model. Results obtained from the two methods were closed to each other. Also, the perfect balance point was achieved at unity power factor. This application proved that the output voltage and current have sinusoidal waves which implying that the generator was operating efficiently.
