The counter-emf aids the armature resistance to limit the current through the
armature. When power is first applied to a motor, the armature does not rotate.
At that instant the counter-emf is zero and the only factor limiting the armature
less than 1 Ω; therefore the current through the armature would be very large
when the power is applied. This current can make an excessive voltage drop
affecting other equipment in the circuit and even trip overload protective devices.
Therefore the need arises for an additional resistance in series with the armature
to limit the current until the motor rotation can build up the counter-emf. As the

TO KNOW USE OF FOUR-POINT STARTER
The four-point starter eliminates the drawback of the three-point starter. In
addition to the same three points that were in use with the three-point starter, the
other side of the line, L1, is the fourth point brought to the starter when the arm is
moved from the "Off" position. The coil of the holding magnet is connected
across the line. The holding magnet and starting resistors function identical as in
the three-point starter.
The possibility of accidentally opening the field circuit is quite remote. The
four-point starter provides the no-voltage protection to the motor. If the
power fails, the motor is disconnected from the line.

right, causing rotation.
When a current passes through the coil wound around a soft iron core, the side
of the positive pole is acted upon by an upwards force, while the other side is
acted upon by a downward force. According to Fleming's left hand rule, the
forces cause a turning effect on the coil, making it rotate. To make the motor
rotate in a constant direction, "direct current" commutators make the current
reverse in direction every half a cycle (in a two-pole motor) thus causing the
motor to continue to rotate in the same direction.
A problem with the motor shown above is that when the plane of the coil is
parallel to the magnetic field—i.e. when the rotor poles are 90 degrees from the
stator poles—the torque is zero. In the pictures above, this occurs when the core
of the coil is horizontal—the position it is just about to reach in the last picture on
the right. The motor would not be able to start in this position. However, once it
was started, it would continue to rotate through this position by inertia.
There is a second problem with this simple two-pole design. At the zero-torque
position, both commutator brushes are touching (bridging) both commutator
plates, resulting in a short-circuit. The power leads are shorted together through
the commutator plates, and the coil is also short-circuited through both brushes.
(The coil is shorted twice, once through each brush independently.) Note that this
problem is independent of the non-starting problem above; even if there were a
high current in the coil at this position, there would still be zero torque. The
problem here is that this short uselessly consumes power without producing any
motion (or even any coil current). In a low-current battery-powered demonstration
this short-circuiting is generally not considered harmful. (Here, low-current means
that the battery is intrinsically limited to low current and will not overheat if loaded
with a short circuit, this is usually the case for an AA alkaline cell but not the case
for batteries like the Li-ion cells used in many laptop batteries in this first decade
of the 21st century.) However, if a two-pole motor were designed to do actual
work with several hundred watts of power output, this shorting could result in
severe commutator overheating, brush damage, and potential welding of the
brushes—if they were metallic—to the commutator. (Carbon brushes, which are
often used, would not weld.) In any case, a short like this is very wasteful, drains
batteries rapidly, and at a minimum requires power supply components to be
designed to much higher standards than would be needed just to run the motor
without the shorting.
DOL starting is sometimes used to start small water pumps, compressors, fans
and conveyor belts. In the case of an asynchronous motor, such as the 3-Phase
Squirrel-Cage Motor, the motor will pull a high starting current until it has run up
to full speed. This starting current is commonly around 6 times the full load
current, but may as high as 12 times the full load current. For this reason, larger
motors will normally be soft started or run on variable speed drives in order to
minimize disruption to the power supply.
Most motors are reversible or, in other words, they can be run clockwise and
anti-clockwise. A reversing starter is an electrical or electronic circuit that
reverses the direction of a motor automatically. Logically, the circuit is composed
of two DOL circuits; one for clockwise operation and the other for anti-clockwise
operation. The case of three phase motor inter changing of any two phases will
do the same

in contactor closed, this is connected in parallel across the start switch (which is
a normally open switch) in the control circuit. The no-volt coil is energized once
the start switch is initiated and keeps current flowing through the control circuit. In
the event of no power being supplied to the motor, the motor will stop. In order
for the motor to be turned on again, the start switch must be initiated and
therefore be the catalyst for closing the holding in contactor and hence energize
the no-volt coil. Only once the no-volt coil is energized, will current remain flowing
in the control circuit
INDUCTION MOTOR
Induction motors are now the preferred choice for industrial motors due to their
rugged construction, absence of brushes (which are required in most DC motors)
and — thanks to modern power electronics — the ability to control the speed of
the motor.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION AND COMPARISON TO
SYNCHRONOUS MOTORS
By way of contrast, the induction motor does not have any direct supply onto the
rotor; instead, a secondary current is induced in the rotor. To achieve this, stator
windings are arranged around the rotor so that when energized with a poly phase
supply they create a rotating magnetic field pattern which sweeps past the rotor.
This changing magnetic field pattern induces current in the rotor conductors.
These currents interact with the rotating magnetic field created by the stator and
in effect cause a rotational motion on the rotor.
However, for these currents to be induced, the speed of the physical rotor must
be less than the speed of the rotating magnetic field in the stator, or else the
magnetic field will not be moving relative to the rotor conductors and no currents
will be induced. If by some chance this happens, the rotor typically slows slightly
until a current is re-induced and then the rotor continues as before. This
difference between the speed of the rotor and speed of the rotating magnetic
field in the stator is called slip. It is unit less and is the ratio between the relative
speed of the magnetic field as seen by the rotor (the slip speed) to the speed of
the rotating stator field. Due to this an induction motor is sometimes referred to
as an asynchronous machine.
Formula
The relationship between the supply frequency, f, and the number of poles, p,
and the synchronous speed (speed of rotating field), ns is given by:
Where
Note on the use of p: Some texts refer to number of pole pairs instead of number
of poles. For example a 6 pole motor would have 3 pole pairs. The equation of
synchronous speed then becomes:
CONSTRUCTION
The stator consists of wound 'poles' that carry the supply current to induce a
magnetic field that penetrates the rotor. In a very simple motor, there would be a
single projecting piece of the stator (a salient pole) for each pole, with windings
around it; in fact, to optimize the distribution of the magnetic field, the windings
are distributed in many slots located around the stator, but the magnetic field still
has the same number of north-south alternations. The number of 'poles' can vary
between motor types but the poles are always in pairs (i.e. 2, 4, 6, etc.).
• SQUIRREL-CAGE ROTOR
A slip ring rotor replaces the bars of the squirrel-cage rotor with windings that are
connected to slip rings. When these slip rings are shorted, the rotor behaves
similarly to a squirrel-cage rotor; they can also be connected to resistors to
produce a high-resistance rotor circuit, which can be beneficial in starting
A rotor can be made from a solid mild steel. The induced current causes the
rotation.
SPEED CONTROL
The synchronous rotational speed of the rotor (i.e. the theoretical unloaded
speed with no slip) is controlled by the number of pole pairs (number of windings
in the stator) and by the frequency of the supply voltage. Before the development
of cheap power electronics, it was difficult to vary the frequency to the motor and
therefore the uses for the induction motor were limited.
The general term for a power electronic device that controls the speed of a motor
as well as other parameters is inverter. A typical unit will take the mains AC
supply, rectify and smooth it into a "link" DC voltage, and, then convert it into the
desired AC waveform. In general, a DC-to-AC converter is called an inverter,
which is probably where the motor-control inverter gets its name.
Direct-on-line starting
In an induction motor, the magnitude of the induced emf in the rotor circuit is
proportional to the stator field and the slip speed (the difference between
synchronous and rotor speeds) of the motor, and the rotor current depends on
this emf. When the motor is started, the rotor speed is zero. The synchronous
speed is constant, based on the frequency of the supplied AC voltage. So the slip
speed is equal to the synchronous speed, the slip ratio is 1, and the induced emf
in the rotor is large. As a result, a very high current flows through the rotor. This
is similar to a transformer with the secondary coil short circuited, which causes
the primary coil to draw a high current from the mains.
When an induction motor starts DOL, a very high current is drawn by the stator,
in the order of 5 to 9 times the full load current. This high current can, in some
motors, damage the windings; in addition, because it causes heavy line voltage
drop, other appliances connected to the same line may be affected by the
voltage fluctuation. To avoid such effects, several other strategies are employed
for starting motors.
Star-delta starters
• wye (star in Europe), where the windings are connected from phases of
the supply to the neutral;
• Delta (sometimes mesh in Europe), where the windings are connected
between phases of the supply.
A delta connection results in a higher voltage to the windings than a wye
connection (the voltage is multiplied by). A star-delta starter initially connects the
motor in wye, which produces a lower starting current than delta, then switches
to delta when the motor has reached a set speed. Disadvantages of this method
over DOL starting are:
• Lower starting torque, which may be a serious issue with pumps or any
devices with significant breakaway torque
• Increased complexity, as more contactors and some sort of speed switch
or timers are needed
• Two shocks to the motor (one for the initial start and another when the
motor switches from wye to delta)
Variable-frequency drives
Autotransformer starters
SINGLE PHASE
For small motors of a few watts the start rotation is done by means of a single
turn of heavy copper wire around one corner of the pole. The current induced in
the single turn is out of phase with the supply current and so causes an out-of-
phase component in the magnetic field, which imparts to the field sufficient
rotational character to start the motor. Starting torque is very low and efficiency is
also reduced. Such shaded-pole motors are typically used in low-power
applications with low or zero starting torque requirements, such as desk fans and
record players.
Larger motors are provided with a second stator winding which is fed with an out-

the winding having different values of inductance and resistance from the main
winding.
which after a few seconds of operation heats up and increases its resistance to a
high value, reducing the current through the second winding to an insignificant
level. Other designs keep the second winding continuously energized during
