APPARATUS REQUIRED
PRECAUTIONS:

THEORY:
Slip ring induction motor is also called as phase wound motor. The motor is
wound for as many poles as the no. of stator poles and always wound 3-Ф even while
the stator is wound two-phase. The other three windings are brought out and
connected to three insulated slip-rings mounted on the shaft with brushes resting on
them. These three brushes are further externally connected to a three phase star
connected rheostat. This makes possible the introduction of an additional resistance
in the rotor circuit during starting period for increasing starting torque of the motor.

AC MOTOR STARTER:

DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
THEORY
NECESSITY OF AC MOTOR STARTERS
An induction motor is similar to a secondary short circuit three phase
transformer so if normal voltage is applied to the motor it takes 5 to 6 times of normal
current from the mains and starting torque is also increased to around 1.5 to 2.5 times
of their full load torque. This initial excessive starting current is objectionable, because
it will produce large line voltage drop, which in turn will affect the operation of the other
electrical equipments connected to the same mains. So the starters are used to reduce
the starting current of induction motor and also to protect the motor and also used to
protect the motor from overloading and low voltages.
TYPES OF STARTERS:
(1) Direct Online Starter
(2) Auto transformer Starter
(3) Star Delta Starter
(4) Rotor Resistance Starter
(5) Direct On Line Starter [DOL Starter]
When full voltage is connected across the stator terminals of an induction motor,
large current drawn by the windings. This is because at the induction motor behaves
as a transformer with a short circuited secondary.
At starting when the rotor is at standstill, the EMFs induced in the rotor circuit is
exactly similar to the EMF induced in the secondary windings of a transformer. The
induced EMF of the rotor will circulated a very large current through its windings.
The primary will draw a very large current from the supply mains to balance the rotor
ampere turns. To limit the stator and rotor current at starting to safe value, it may be
necessary to reduce the stator supply voltage to low value. With full load voltage
applied across the stator terminals the starting current will be very high.( 5 to 8
times the full load current.)
60
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
The slip ring induction motor always started with full line voltage applied across the
stator terminals. The value of starting current is adjusted by introducing a variable
resistance in the rotor circuit. The controlling resistance is in the form of the rheostat
connected in star, the resistance being gradually cut out of the rotor circuit as the
motor gathers rated speed. By increasing the rotor resistance not only the rotor
61
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
(And hence stator) current is reduced at starting but at the same time torque is also
increased due to improvement in power factor. The rheostat is either of a stud or
contactor type and may be hand operated or automatic. It may be built to include the
main stator switch together with under voltage and over current release.
62
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
The armature of dc motor is stationary before starting; the back EMF which is
proportional to speed is ZERO. As the armature resistance is very small, if the rated
voltage is applied directly to the armature at the time of starting it will draw many
times the full load current, and thereby, that is every possibility of damaging the
armature due to heavy starting current.
The armature current Ia of dc motor is given by the expression
Ia = Amps.
At the instant of start when the speed of the motor is ZERO the back EMF induced
will also be ZERO.
Example:
A supply voltage = 200 v
The value of Ra = 0.5Ω
Hence at starting Ia is very very large and it is many times more than the full load
current of the motor. This high initial rushing current will burn the armature and
also causes very heavy voltage drops across the lines. This may affect the operation of
other machines. Therefore the heavy starting current of dc motor should be limited to
a safe value. This is done by inserting a resistance in series with the armature at the
time of starting for a period of 5 – 10 seconds. As the motor gains the speed back
EMF is build up and then the starting resistance could be gradually cut off.
63
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
resistance element are mounted on the back side of a slate board. On the front side
of the board brass studs are provided and the resistance junctions are connected
with each brass stud. The protective devices such as over load release and no volt
release are incorporated in the circuit as shown in figure. The handle of the starter is
fixed in such a way as to move over the bras studs.
When the handle touches the first stud, the resistance is connected in series with the
armature. The field circuit is connected across the full supply voltage. As the handle
64
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
is moved over studs, the resistance connected in series with the armature circuit is
gradually cutout. The handle movement against spring force is shown in the diagram.
A soft iron piece is attached to the handle. The soft iron piece is attracted by the
electromagnet (NVR), when the handle reaches the on position. In case of a failure of
the supply or the voltage is very low, the electromagnet de- energizes and releases the
arm. The spring force brings the handle to OFF position.

starter the four terminals L+ L- A and F are available. The constructional details and
operational details are the same as that of the three point starter, except the
following difference.
In three point starter, the coil of the no volt release is connected in series with the
field circuit. But in four point starter, the coil of the no volt release does not carry the
field current. It is connected across the supply line through a protective resistance,
Rp. the no volt coil is independent of the field current so any changes in shunt field
current do not affect the through the no volt coil. The current through the no volt coil
does not decrease even when the field rheostat is adjusted for speed variations. The
electromagnetic pull produced by the no volt coil will always be the same and
sufficient to hold the handle in ON position. Thus the misoperation as the three
points tarter never takes place in four point starter.
67

Thus the AC and DC motor starter study are completed.

THEORY
A synchronous motor is electrically identical with an alternator or a.c. generator. In
fact, a given synchronous machine may be used, atleast theoretically, as an alternator, when
71
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONICS ENGINEERING JCTCET
driven mechanically or as a motor, when driven electrically, just in the case of d.c. machines.
Most synchronous motors are rated between 150 kW and 15 kW and run at speeds ranging
from 150 to 1800 r.p.m.
Some characteristic features of a synchronous motor are worth nothing:
1. It runs either at synchronous speed or not at all i.e. while running it maintains a
constant speed. The only way to change its speed is to vary the supply frequency
(because Ns = 120 f / P).
2. It is not inherently self-starting. It has to be run upto synchronous (or near
synchronous)
Speed by some means, before it can be synchronized to the supply.
3. It is capable of being operated under a wide range of power factors, both lagging and
leading. Hence, it can be used for power correction purposes, in addition to supply
torque to drive loads.
Principle of operation
When a three phase winding is fed by a three phase supply, then a magnetic flux of
constant magnitude but rotating at synchronous speed is produced. Consider a two-pole
stator of figure (a) in which are shown two stator poles (marked N s and Ss) rotating at
synchronous speed, say in clockwise direction. With the rotor position as shown, suppose the
stator poles are at that instant situated at points A and B.The two similar poles(of rotor) and
Ns (of stator) as well as S and S s will repel each other, with the result that rotor tends to
rotate in the anticlockwise direction.

1. No load power factor (CosØ0) = P0/V0I0
V0 - No load voltage per phase in volts.
I0 - No load current per phase in amps.
P0 - No load power per phase in watts.
2. Working component current (Iw) = I0(ph) X CosØ0
3. Magnetizing current (Im) = I0(ph) X SinØ0
4. No load resistance (R0) =V0/I0(ph) CosØ0 in.
5. No load reactance (X0) = V0/I0(ph) Sin f0 in Ω.
SC TEST
6. Motor equivalent Impedance referred to stator (Zsc(ph)) = Vsc(ph) / Isc(ph) in Ω.
7. Motor equivalent Resistance referred to stator (Rsc(ph)) = Psc(ph) / I2sc(ph) in Ω.
