Hi fellows! Hoping everyone is fine and doing great. Today, I am going to write about 3 Phase Induction Motor. As I mentioned earlier in my article on Introduction to Induction Motors, there are two types of Induction Motors, Single Phase Induction Motor and 3 phase Induction Motor.
3 phase induction motor is the one which operates on three phase AC supply. It is the most commonly used motor for high load and industrial applications. I would discuss advantages of a 3 phase induction motor later in this article. Three phase induction motors are further divided into two types; Squirrel Cage Induction Motor and Wound Rotor Induction Motor based on the construction of rotor. First of all, I am going to discuss about the construction of 3 Phase Inducti ...
Hi friends, I hope you all are fine and doing great with your lives. Today, I am gonna give you an Introduction of a Single Phase Induction Motor. As I previously mentioned in my article on Introduction to Induction Motors, there are two main types of Induction Motors, single phase induction motor and 3 phase Induction Motor. For information on three phase, you can read my article on 3 Phase Induction Motors. Now let’s talk about the definition of single phase induction motor.
A single phase induction motor is the one which operates on a single phase AC power source. This motor is used in the applications where requirement of power is low. It is generally used in domestic applications because of limited size and less power. Some of the uses includ ...
