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…

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…

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 …

MCB: MINIATURE CIRCUIT BREAKER OPERATION BASIC

By -
Image
What is MCB?MCB is a device designed to protect an electrical circuit's wiring from the serious damage which would be caused if it has to carry a current which is too high for the diameter of its wires.
The MCB or Miniature Circuit Breaker is actually works for both electrical circuit make or break switch and protection device fuse.
Likely normal fan/light   switches, MCB also can operate manually as circuit ON or OFF; specialty is, it can break the circuit automatically  to protect from over current.
Fuse is a very first protection device for electrical circuit. Fuse actually nothing but a thin wire that enclosed in a protective casing and plugged into the circuit.
Fuse carries the same circuit current that flows in any other point, but it designed such a way that when current reach too high unexpectedly, the fuse burns up and break and safe the wiring from damages. What Is Differences Between Fuses And MCB?The limitation of fuses is that it works only once, every time burning the fu…

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 …

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…
