Also calculate the terminal voltage at starting. What is the percent change of the terminal voltage? Can you explain the change in the terminal voltage at starting?

A four-pole, 60 Hz, Y-connected, squirrel cage induction motor has the following

parameters:



The motor is connected to 220 V supply through a cable of 1.30 ? inductive

reactance per phase. At a speed of 1710 rpm, calculate the following:

a. Motor current and input power.

b. Terminal voltage

c. Developed torque




d.

To find Vstart, find I’2 using the method in part (a) except with s = 1 and find Vt as

found in part (b).

Vstart = 89.31 V

High slip implies low rotor resistance, which in turn means high current. This

means a high voltage drop in the connecting cable, which explains the low

terminal voltage. This can be resolved by adding a starting resistance to the rotor

windings to keep the starting current low and the terminal voltage close to the

rated value.
