Working of induction motor , types of starter in induction motor

Question

Accepted Answer

Induction motors work on the principle of electromagnetic induction. Types of starters include DOL, star-delta, and soft starters.

Induction motors operate based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where a rotating magnetic field is produced by the stator winding.
Types of starters for induction motors include Direct Online (DOL) starters, which provide full voltage to the motor at start-up.
Star-delta starters are used to reduce the starting current and torque of the motor by initially connecting the motor in a star configuration and then switching to a delta configuration.
Soft starters gradually increase the voltage to the motor, reducing the inrush current and mechanical stress on the motor during start-up.
