The next two bits is where I am getting confused. Is there some difference
between a power tool and an electic motor,

They're assuming "power tool" is a brushed motor (most hand-held
tools) and "electric motor" is an induction motor (bigger stationary
machines).

Unless you're a woodwork shop, assume "power tool" for all.

If you _really_ care, the electrical FAQs at www.owwm.com are good on
power tool motors.
