Introduction • Induction motors (IM) most widely used • IM (particularly squirrel-cage type) compared to DC motors • Rugged • Lower maintenance • More reliable • Lower cost, weight, volume • Higher efficiency • Able to operate in dirty and explosive environments EEEB443 - Control & Drives
Introduction • IM mainly used in applications requiring constant speed • Conventional speed control of IM expensive or highly inefficient • IM drives replacing DC drives in a number of variable speed applications due to • Improvement in power devices capabilities • Reduction in cost of power devices EEEB443 - Control & Drives

Induction Motor – Starting • Small motors can be started ‘direct-on-line’ • Large motors require assisted starting • Starting arrangement chosen based on: • Load requirements • Nature of supply (weak or stiff) • Some features of starting mechanism: • Motor Tstartmust overcome friction, load torque and inertia of motor-load system within a prescribed time limit • Istart magnitude ( 5-7 times I rated) must not cause • machine overheating • Dip in source voltage beyond permissible value EEEB443 - Control & Drives
