How does an Induction Motor work 


The AC induction motor is well suited to applications requiring constant speed operation. In general, the induction motor is cheaper and easier to maintain compared to other alternatives.

The induction motor is made up of the stator, or stationary windings, and the rotor. The stator consists of a series of wire windings of very low resistance permanently attached to the motor frame. As a voltage and a current are applied to the stator winding terminals, a magnetic field is developed in the windings. By the way the stator windings are arranged, the magnetic field appears to synchronously rotate electrically around the inside of the motor housing.

The rotor is comprised of a number of thin bars, usually aluminum, mounted in a laminated cylinder. The bars are arranged horizontally and almost parallel to the rotor shaft. At the ends of the rotor, the bars are connected together with a “shorting ring.” The rotor and stator are separated by an air gap which allows free rotation of the rotor.





Induction Motor:

Induction motor is very much important for industrial revolution. Every electrical engineer and electrical crew related to work field of Induction Motor should have clear conception. 

This video clip of "How does Induction Motor work" will be quick helpful.

Star Delta Starter Line Diagram and Its Working Principle

What is Star Delta Starter for Motor Starting? Star-Delta starter is an electrical motor starting device, generally uses in big size motor to overcome some technical limitation. Star and Delta means here 2 separate states of motor running, first Star connection and then Delta connection.
The starting current of any heavy electric motor can be more than 4 times the normal load current it draws when it has gained speed and has reached its normal running condition. To overcome this initial high current enchanting problem, such arrangement needs Star connection at starting time and if Star connection has sufficient torque to run up to 75% to %80 of full load speed, then the motor can be connected in Delta mode.
When the motor connected to Delta configuration the phase voltage increases by 173% and phase currents increase by the same ratio. The line current increases three times its value in star connection. What Problem Starting Motor without Star-Delta?We already know, if the motor starts si…

Procedure of Earth Electrode Resistance Measurement by Digital Earth Tester:
To ensure the system with good earthed and not buried within the resistance area of others electrode. Earth resistance requirements for all systems are not same, but everywhere it is required to keep less to fulfil the system requirements.
Now we are going to measure the earth electrode or grounding rod resistance measurement by Earth Tester. Previously, earth tester was totally horrible, manual or hand rotating DC generator type, receiving accurate reading was difficult. Right now lots of Digital Earth Testers are available in the market.
Measuring the Earth Electrode resistance we test actually to- Test the earth electrode resistance;Ascertain the suitability of the location of the electrode;Ensure that the electrode is not buried within the resistance area of another electrode.
Test Equipment Ranges:We are using simple digital Earth Tester having Red-Yellow-Green 3 test cord; two test spikes, total Ohm range …

3 Phase Electrical Distribution Board DB Wiring Procedure To understand and wiring an electrical distribution board, first of all you have to clear understanding about DB or Distribution Board wiring definition and systems as per international and local standard. Here you will find some basic idea about Distribution Board and its types.
What Distribution Board (DB) Is?A safe electrical system designed for a house or premises that included isolation switches, protective devices, connecting of multiple cable circuits including their associated neutral and earth conductors. Distribution Boards are normally following three (3) types-
Main Distribution Board (MDB):The Distribution Board which in generally receive incoming source of Low Voltage (LV) from transformer secondary of customer or the distribution company’s service outlets. MDB is the first receiving point (bus bar) from Transformer or Distribution Company.
The MDB may also be known as the ‘Consumer Unit’ where the main isolation de…

What Is Lightning Arrester Or Surge Arrester?



In a simple and shortly we can say surge arrester or lightning arrester is a device used in electrical power system to protect others equipment from switching surges or high energy lightning surges.

If you are hearing the terms “lightning arrester” or “surge arrester” very first time and thinking, it’s like something “police arrest terrorist”! Yes, you not quite wrong; lightning or surge like a destructive terrorist for electrical power system, surge arrester works like a police man, catch it and send to ground before destruct the system equipment.
Don’t confuse lightning or surge arrester with lightning rod, surge suppressor or TVSS. Lightning Rod is a grounded potential device that divert the lightning surge; Suppressor is a lightning diverter device that uses in low voltage (below 1000V) system; TVSS is Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor used for divert the transient surge in low voltage (below 100v) system.

So as summary, we can say surge or …

Understanding of Step and Touch Potential in Power Transmission System to Reduce Electrical Hazard and Improve Line Crew Safety.The purpose of this article to focus on some less familiar but the most important safety induction like- step potential or step voltage, touch potential or touch voltage. We also try to give you some pint-size attention on basics of reducing touch potential and why power grid substation yard needs washed clean gravels or stone rather than others. We are here using some less familiar literature; means, we everybody knows the importance of electrical safety. But todays discussing topics like step potential or touch potential is little professional and not well known to all, even not to all electrical engineer. Especially who deals with power transmission and distribution substation they are very well familiar with these terms step and touch potential. What Is Step Potential or Step VoltageStep potential simply is the potential or voltage difference between a foot…

Why Purge System Is Required For Refrigerant and How Does It Operate in Chiller Compressor

Why Purge System Is Required For Refrigerant and How Does It Operate in Chiller Compressor
Purge operation system for refrigerant in chiller compressor is carry-out to remove air and moisture; Low-pressure chillers typically include a purge system to remove air and moisture that may leak in, while minimizing the emission of refrigerant.
The purge consists of a small refrigeration system, a pump-out system, controls, and a filter drier. The purge’s refrigeration system includes a small compressor, a finned-tube air-cooled condensing coil, an expansion valve, and an evaporator coil inside of the purge tank. The tank with the evaporator coil separates condensable refrigerant from non-condensable air. Because the purge evaporator operates at a lower temperature and pressure than the chiller condenser, a mixture of refrigerant vapour and air is drawn from the chiller condenser, just above the level of the liquid refrigerant. (This is where air typically concentrates in a low-pressure chiller…

ভুমিকম্পের কি এবং কেন হয়:
আদি কাল থেকে ভুমিকম্প সম্পর্কে অনেক কল্প কাহিনী প্রচলিত আছে  দেশে দেশে বিভিন্ন সমাজে। তার মধ্য থেকে কয়েকটা উল্ল্যখ করা যেতে পারে মুটামুটি একটা ধারনা পাওয়ার জন্য।
চারটা মস্ত বড় হাতী এই পৃথিবীকে মাথায় নিয়ে আছে। আর এই হাতী চারটা দাড়িয়ে আছে একটা কচ্ছপের উপর। আর কচ্ছপটা আছে একটা গোখরা সাপের মাথায়। বুঝতেই পারছেন যে কেউ একটু নড়াচড়া দিলেই তখন পৃথিবীটা কেপে উঠে, আর এটাই ভুমিকম্প।
বিরাট একটা দৈত্ব্য এই পৃথিবীকে মাথায় নিয়ে আছে। পৃথিবীর সমস্ত গাছপালা হলো দৈত্বে্র চুল, আর মানুষ ও প্রাণীকূল হলো তার উকুন। এটা সাধারনত পুর্বদিকে মুখ করে আছে। কখনো ঘাড় ঘুরিয়ে পশ্চিম দিকে তাকিয়ে আবার পুর্ব দিকে হয়, তখন ঝাকুনি অনুভুত হয়, আর এটাই ভুমিকম্প।
সাত নাগিনী এই পৃথিবীর সুরক্ষার জন্য পালাক্রমে দ্বায়িত্ব পালন করছে। একজন থেকে আর একজন দ্বায়িত্ব বুঝে নেয়ার সময় কিছুটা ঝাঁকুনি অনুভুত হয়, আর এটাই ভুমিকম্প।
পৃথিবী মানুষের মতই একটা জীবন্ত প্রাণী। এরও মানুষের মতো অসুখ-বিসুখ হয়। তাই তো যখন পৃথিবীর জ্বর আসে আর এই জ্বরের কাপুনির ফলে ভুপৃষ্ঠ কেপে উঠে, আর এটাই ভুমিকম্প।
