7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

Answer 2. Hollow

Explanation:

The hollow shaft can resist more torsion load with


the same resisting area (same weight) as compared to
the solid shaft. Therefore shaft of the induction motor
must be of the hollow type.
The advantage of hollow shafts:
1. High tolerance to the rotational imbalance due to
low weight.
2. Low rotational inertia
3. Lightweight comparable to the solid shaft of the
same diameter
4. Due to low specific mass hollow shafts can tolerant
to high-temperature
5. Cheaper in cost

Ques 5. Which of the following component is usually


fabricated out of silicon steel?

1. Stator core
2. Bearings
3. Shaft
4. None of the above

Hide Explanation

Answer 1. Stator core

Explanation:

https://www.electricalexams.co/3-phase-induction-motor-mcq/ 3/13
7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

The stator core is made of silicon because it possesses


high magnetic permeability and low magnetic
hysteresis.
Adding silicon to steel increase its resistivity and
strength and it is easier to magnetize silicon added
steel.
It is laminated to reduce eddy-current losses.

Ques 6. Slip ring of an induction motor is usually made up


of

1. Aluminium
2. Copper
3. Phosphorus Bronze
4. Carbon

Hide Explanation

Answer 3. Phosphorus Bronze

Explanation:

https://www.electricalexams.co/3-phase-induction-motor-mcq/ 4/13
7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

A slip ring is an electromechanical device that allows


the transmission of power and electrical signals from a
stationary to a rotating structure.
It is used in case of AC supply, where AC is required.
With slip ring, the voltage in the external circuit varies
like a sine wave and the current alternates the
direction.
Phosphor bronze is an alloy of copper, tin, and
phosphorus. The tin increases the corrosion resistance
and strength of the alloy. The phosphorus increases
the wear resistance and stiffness of the alloy.
Phosphorous bronze provide good electrical
conductivity and low thermal conductivity
Since slip ring induction motors used to accelerate
heavy loads over a long period of time and to
withstand excessive heat phosphorous bronze slip is
used.

Ques 7. A 3-phase 440 V, 50 Hz induction motor has 4%


slip. The frequency of rotor current will be

1. 50 Hz
2. 25 Hz
3. 5 Hz
4. 2 Hz

Hide Explanation

Answer 4. 2 Hz

Explanation:

https://www.electricalexams.co/3-phase-induction-motor-mcq/ 5/13
7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

Frequency of the rotor current is given as


fr = sf
fr= 0.4 x 50 = 2 Hz

Ques 8. The starting torque of a squirrel-cage induction


motor is

1. Full-load torque
2. Slightly more than full-load torque
3. Low
4. Negligible

Hide Explanation

Answer 3. Low

Explanation:

Starting torque is directly proportional to the rotor


resistance of an induction motor.
The resistance of squirrel-cage induction motor can
not be varied as compared to the slip ring induction
motor.
In the squirrel-cage induction motor, the rotor has very
low fixed resistance, therefore, the starting torque is
low due to low power factor and high reactance.
The starting torque could be increased by increasing
starting resistance but due to high current in the rotor
during starting will increase the copper loss which will
decrease the motor efficiency.

Ques 9. The efficiency of an induction motor is about


https://www.electricalexams.co/3-phase-induction-motor-mcq/ 6/13
7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

1. 100%
2. 80-90%
3. 50-60%
4. Less than 50%

Hide Explanation

Answer 2. 80-90%

Explanation:

Induction motors are often compared to Transformers


because both the machines work under the principle of
“mutual induction”. An induction motor is also
called as rotating transformer with secondary winding
short-circuited.
As we know that the transformer’s efficiency is greater
than 95%.
An Induction motor includes friction and windage(i.e.,
mechanical losses) losses addition to the no load and
copper losses, hence efficiency comes down to 80% to
90%.

Ques 10. A double squirrel-cage induction motor has

1. Two series winding in stator


2. Two parallel windings in stator
3. Two parallel winding in Rotor
4. Two rotors moving in opposite direction

7/3/2019 100 Most Important 3-phase Induction Motor MCQ with Explanation

Answer 3. Two parallel winding in Rotor

Explanation:

In squirrel cage motor there is no provision made for


adding external resistance because the end rings are
permanently shorted with the rotor conductor,
therefore, the starting torque of squirrel cage induction
motor is very poor due to low rotor resistance.
The starting torque could be increased by increasing
starting resistance but due to high current in the rotor
during starting will increase the copper loss which will
decrease the motor efficiency.
As the name suggests the double squirrel-cage
induction motor has two sets of parallel squirrel-cage
winding in the same rotor.
The outer cage bar have smaller cross-section area
as compared to inner cage bar
The outer cage bar is made up of high resistive material
such as aluminum, brass etc.
The outer cage has less leakage flux linkage
because of their relatively open slots hence it has lower
reactance.
The Lower cage bar has high cross-section area and
it is made up of low resistance material like copper.
The upper and lower cage bar is separated by narrow
slit or construction.
The inner cage has high leakage flux linkage due to the
presence of slit hence it has high self-inductance.
Therefore during starting period, it gave high
resistance means high starting torque whereas it gives
low resistance during running condition.
