    Electromagnetic Induction

    The transfer of electric energy from one

    circuit to another without the aid of electric

    connections is called induction.

    Electromagnetic Induction

    Electromagnetic induction occurs

    whenever there is relative movement

    between a conductor and a ma netic

    field, provided the conductor is cutting

    across e magne c nes o orce an s

    not moving parallel to them.

    This type of rotor is provided with 3-phase windings, which are

    starred internally. The other three terminals are brought out and

    connected to three insulated slip rings mounted on the shaft with

    brushes resting on them, under running condition, the slip rings are

    s ort-c rcu te .

    As soon as current flows in the stator the lines of ma netic fluxproduced in the field coils cut across the rotor and induce a voltage

    in the bars. The rotor has such an extremely low resistance that the

    induced voltage causes a large current to flow, and this currentcreates a magnetic field that reacts with the rotating field in the

    stator.

    type of simple starter is another motor, either ac or dc, whichbrings the rotor up to approximately 90% of its synchronousspeed. The starting motor is then disconnected and the rotor

    locks-in-steps with the rotating field.

    Another starting method is a second winding of the squirrel-cagetype of rotor. This induction-winding brings the motor almost to
