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.

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…

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 DC voltage is not Applied in Transformer Input

Author of this article BGD:
What Happen if DC Voltage is Apply to Transformer Input? Considering the importance we can say transformer is the most efficient electrical machine ever invented on the earth.
The main function of transformer to step up or step down the voltage to desired voltage level keeping the power level same at both primary and secondary or in simple input power and output power is equal.
So, we can define as a transformer  is a static device which convert electrical power from one circuit to another without changing its frequency and  it Steps up or Steps down the level of AC Voltage and Current.
Finally we draw the working principle of transformer that works on the principle of mutual induction of two coils or Faraday Law’s Of Electromagnetic induction.
When current in the primary coil of transformer is changed the flux linked to the transformer secondary coil also changes; hence an EMF is induced in the secondary coil due to Faraday law’s of electromagnetic induction.
Actually transformer is …

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.

CT (CURRENT TRANSFORMERS) IN ELECTRICAL DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

Author of this article BGD:

What is CT or Current Transformer in Electrical Distribution SystemThe CT in abbreviation of Current Transformer is a type of instrument transformer that used to measure the current in AC or Alternating Current systems, taking the reduced amount from it’s secondary winding which is proportional of primary winding that being to measured. In the low voltage system where current flow limit within 100A, is possible to measure directly or whole current metering system. For low voltage system current more than 100A and all high voltage system, current measured by using CT. Actually CT takes a reduced portion of current which is proportional to flowing total current in the load circuit. The instrumental transformer CT is required for low voltage high amount or high voltage system current measuring because of conventional measuring instrument is not practical to design to measure in high voltage or high current directly. So, Current Transformer’s working principle is not different from ordinary…

You may find there three options to convert the single phase power convert into three phase, such as-

static converter- using capacitor to create a power waveform;rotary converter- using connect single-phase motor to three-phase generator; electronic converter- using single-phase power converting into DC and then inverting into three-phase AC.
Converting Single Phase Power Into Three Phase: Using Digital Converter Here in this article we will discuss and try to give very basic idea about converting the single phase power into three phase power in different practicable way. This is not the detail circuit diagram or shop design. This is the conceptual drawing that will help a beginner to start their project or enlarge their thinking about critical power supply.
