THEORY:
The three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor can, and many times
does, have the same armature (stator) winding as the three-phase
synchronous motor. As in the synchronous motor, applying three-phase
currents to the armature creates a synchronously-rotating magnetic field.
The induction motor rotor is a completely short-circuited conductive cage.
Figures 1 and 2 illustrate the rotor construction.
The rotor receives its excitation by induction from the armature
field. Hence, the induction machine is a doubly-excited machine in the
same sense as the synchronous and DC machines.
The basic principle of operation is described by Faraday’s Law. If
we assume that the machine rotor is at a standstill and the armature is
excited, then the armature-produced rotating field is moving with respect
to the rotor. In fact, the relative speed between the rotating field and the
rotor is synchronous speed. For this condition, the rotating field induces a
large voltage in the rotor bars. The large voltage causes a large current in
the squirrel-case which, in turn, creates a magnetic field in the rotor. The
rotor magnetic field interacts with the armature magnetic field, and a
torque is produced. If the produced torque is larger than any load torque,

the rotor begins to turn. As the rotor accelerates, the speed difference
between the rotor and the armature field is reduced. This reduced speed
difference (or slip) causes the induced rotor voltage to be reduced, the
rotor current to be reduced, the rotor flux to be reduced, and the torque
produced by the machine to be reduced. Eventually, the torque produced
by the motor equals the torque demanded by the load, and the motor settles
to an equilibrium rotor speed. This equilibrium rotor speed must be less
than synchronous speed since there must be a slip to produce torque.
The frequency-dependent nature of the rotor impedances causes the
torque versus speed characteristic of the induction motor to be quite non-
linear.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE AND RECORDS
1. Connections are made as per the circuit diagram.

2. Check all the knobs are in counter clockwise direction, before switching on the main
supply.
3. Switch ON the supply.
4. Vary torque in steps using control unit.
5. Tabulate speed, current and frequency in the rotor circuit at different torques.
