  • Q1. Why power plug earth wire is bigger in size?
  • Ans. 

    The power plug earth wire is bigger in size to ensure safety and prevent electrical shocks.

    • The earth wire provides a path for the current to flow in case of a fault or short circuit.

    • A larger wire size reduces resistance and allows for the safe dissipation of excess current.

    • It helps to protect individuals and equipment from electric shock hazards.

    • The earth wire is connected to the ground, which acts as a reference point...

  • Q3. What is pulse width modulation in VFD?
  • Ans. 

    Pulse width modulation (PWM) is a technique used in VFD to control the speed of the motor by adjusting the width of the pulses of voltage supplied to the motor.

    • PWM is a method of controlling the amount of power delivered to a load without changing the voltage level.

    • In VFD, PWM is used to control the speed of the motor by varying the width of the pulses of voltage supplied to the motor.

Interview Questionnaire 

10 Questions

  • Q1. Principle of DC motor
  • Ans. 

    DC motor works on the principle of Lorentz force.

    • DC motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy.

    • It consists of a rotor and a stator.

    • When current flows through the coil, it produces a magnetic field.

    • The magnetic field interacts with the magnetic field of the permanent magnet, producing a torque that rotates the rotor.

    • The direction of rotation can be reversed by reversing the direction of current flow.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q2. What is commutator?
  • Ans. 

    Commutator is a device used in electric motors to convert AC to DC.

    • It consists of a set of copper segments attached to the rotor of the motor.

    • It helps in reversing the direction of current flow in the armature winding.

    • It ensures that the torque produced by the motor is unidirectional.

    • Examples include DC motors, generators, and some types of welding machines.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q3. Relation between back emf,speed and poles in DC motor
  • Ans. 

    Back EMF is directly proportional to speed and number of poles in a DC motor.

    • Back EMF is generated in the opposite direction to the applied voltage.

    • As the motor speeds up, the back EMF increases.

    • The number of poles in the motor determines the frequency of the back EMF.

    • More poles result in a higher frequency and a smoother rotation.

    • Back EMF is used to control the speed of the motor.

  • Answered by AI
  • Q4. Difference between slipring and squirrel cage induction motor
  • Ans. 

    Slipring and squirrel cage induction motors differ in their rotor construction and starting torque.

    • Slipring motor has a wound rotor with slip rings and brushes while squirrel cage motor has a simple rotor with bars and end rings.

    • Slipring motor has high starting torque and can be used for heavy loads while squirrel cage motor has low starting torque and is suitable for light loads.

    • Slipring motor can be controlled by var...

  • Answered by AI
  • Q5. Difference between synchronous motor and slipring induction motor
  • Ans. 

    Synchronous motors rotate at a fixed speed while slipring induction motors have variable speed.

    • Synchronous motors have a constant speed and require an external power source to start

    • Slipring induction motors have a variable speed and can start on their own

    • Synchronous motors are used in applications where constant speed is required, such as in clocks and timers

    • Slipring induction motors are used in applications where vari...

  • Q6. Relation between speed,frequency and pole between 3-phase induction motor
  • Ans. 

    Speed, frequency and number of poles are interrelated in a 3-phase induction motor.

    • The speed of the motor is directly proportional to the frequency of the power supply.

    • The number of poles in the motor determines the speed at which it operates.

    • For a given frequency, the speed of the motor decreases as the number of poles increases.

    • For a given number of poles, the speed of the motor increases as the frequency of the powe

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Test
Duration: 25 minutes

Round: HR Interview
Experience: It was a very nice experience . They were very friendly so I enjoyed the interview and they are also giving you full time to think and answer.

Skill Tips: They are generally looking for students who have good command on there basics so i suggest you to read the book "basic electrical engineering by V.N.Mittal". Almost every question is from this book only. One more thing I want to suggest you that they are also asking what is your favorite subject and then they are asking question from that portion only so it is better to make good basic command on any one of the subject it may be either power system or machinery.

Interview Preparation Tips

Round: Technical Interview
Experience: The selection process was very simple. First we have to attend the presentation of the company. Next comes technical interview for the shortlisted students. There were very less students applied for the company since other students already got placed. So there was no procedure for shortlisting the students. All the students attended the interview. They were asking only the basics related to core. They were testing whether the student have grip in all the subjects or not.
Tips: Be good with your basics.

Round: HR Interview
Experience: HR will be very funny. The panel were very friendly. To get rid of the tension you will be having, they will first make you laugh and feel comfortable with the interview process. Totally I like the panel who came for taking interview. They were very friendly nature, I felt very comfortable with the interview process. My interview went for 20 minutes, and I felt like it went for just 5 minutes. As a whole I enjoyed the interview.
Tips: No need to worry about the HR. But remember to speak always truth. They are all experienced, so if you tell anything wrong, they will catch you easily.

General Tips: For Juniors I would just say, be prepared with the basics and don't get confuse in between, tell the answer confidentially. No need to go for nightouts, get relax and give interview as if you are discussing with your friends. That's it.
