The Limited Domain of Michael Faraday's Law of Induction...

...merely applies to the Conservation of Energy


Does Michael Faraday's Law of Induction concern itself with the conversion (consumption / conservation) of alternating (A/C) power or with the generation of alternating power?

I think it is the former. The latter condition of the synthesis (generation) of power is a standing wave which cannot dissipate, ie. it cannot exit the circuit as: heat, or light, or mechanical motion of a coil unless it is first converted. But for this conversion to occur, it can no longer exhibit a standing wave pattern in which its phase of voltage and its phase of current are diametrically opposed in polarity (with 180° of separation between them). Instead, in order for conversion to occur, it must realign the phase polarities of its voltage and current to exhibit a maximum power factor to manifest, and maximize, the output of this conversion of power. Otherwise, the standing wave pattern will force a constant build up of reactive power which will, eventually, destroy the circuit which hosts this condition.

Hence, Michael Faraday's Law of Induction is a narrow niche, for it merely defines the consumption of power while ignoring its generation.

Energy is always moving, ie. undergoing changes, but standing waves of energy do not move. Their energy moves, yet their wave pattern does not move.

It is only a moving wave pattern which can be conserved. Everybody is so focused on the conservation of energy while ignoring the non-conservation of their standing waves. For, it is their patterns, not their energy, which defines the consumption or the generation of power.
