Three phase asynchronous AC motor is widely used in industrial and agricultural production due to its simple structure, low cost, easy maintenance and easy operation. 3-phase AC motor uses 3 phase power supply (3 ph 220v, 380v, 400v, 415v, 480v etc.), but in some actual applications, we have single phase power supplies only (1 ph…
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Most electrical equipment requires planned inspection and maintenance to keep it in proper working condition. Periodic inspections prevent serious damage to machinery by locating potential trouble areas. Observant personnel will make full use of their senses to diagnose and locate problems in electrical machinery: the sense of smell directs attention to burning insulation;…
AC motors can be categorized into two types: asynchronous motor and synchronous motor. An asynchronous motor is also called as induction motor. The two types are very different from each other. This paper is focused on the differences between an induction motor and a synchronous motor. Difference on Construction Induction motor: the stator winding…
What is Induction motor One of the most common electrical motor used in most applications which is known as induction motor. This motor is also called as asynchronous motorbecause it runs at a speed less than its synchronous speed. Here we need to define what is synchronous speed. Synchronous speed is the speed of rotation of the magnetic field in a…
