Construction
A 3-phase induction motor has two main parts 1. Stator 2. Rotor Stator
The stator of an induction motor consists of Stator Frame, Stator core, 3 phase winding, two end covers, bearings etc.

Construction

Stator core is a stack of cylindrical steel laminations. Slots are provided on the inner periphery. Three windings are space displaced by 1200 electrical. Large size motors use open slots. Small size motors use semi closed slots. The air gap length should be as small as possible
