The regulation of a 3-phase alternator may be predetermined by conducting the Open Circuit (OC) and the Sort Circuit (SC) tests.
The methods employed for determination of regulation are EMF or synchronous impedance method, MMF or Ampere Turns method and
the ZPF or Potier triangle method. In this experiment, the EMF and MMF methods are used. The OC and SC graphs are plotted from the
two tests. The synchronous impedance is found from the OC test. The regulation is then determined at different power factors by
calculations using vector diagrams. The EMF method is also called pessimistic method as the value of regulation obtained is much more
than the actual value. The MMF method is also called optimistic method as the value of regulation obtained is much less than the actual
value. In the MMF method the armature leakage reactance is treated as an additional armature reaction. In both methods the OC and SC
test data are utilized.
PRECAUTIONS:
(i) The motor field rheostat should be kept in the minimum resistance position.
(ii) The alternator field potential divider should be kept in the minimum voltage position.
(iii) Initially all switches are in open position.FORMULAE:

variable resistance in the rotor circuit. The controlling resistance is in the resistance being gradually cut out of the rotor circuit, as the motor attains rated
speed. It has been already shown that by decreasing rotor resistance, the motor attains rated speed and at the same time the starting torque is also
increased due to improvement in power factor.

It is also known as autotransformers or compensator. It consists of an autotransformers with necessary switches or three phasetransformers reduced voltage is applied to the motor when the motor pick up 80%. So, that the transformer is out-out and full voltage isgiven to the motor most of the autotransformer are provided with 3 sets of tops so as to reduce the voltage to 85, 60 up to 50% of the linevoltage. Again the autotransformer starter may also be provided with stop overload protection and interlocks. The completer scheme of thestarter also included.(a) Interlocks to ensure reduced voltage starting.
(b) Protection against over load etc..,2. STAR DELTA STARTER:The three phase induction motor to be started with the help of the star delta starter must hae its six terminals of the stator winding available.(A1 A2), (B1 B2), (C1 C2). Thus for a 415v across each phase of the stator winding during running.The stator winding is connected instar during starting. Thus for a 415v each winding phase gets 415/_3 = 230V. The starting current is thus reduced in the same proportion (1: _3) and the starting torque isreduce to 1 : 1/_3 compared with the values with full starting. Thus a reduced voltage is applied to the motor during starting.After the motorstarts and attains speed. The connections are changed to delta with the help of the stator and the motor operations at full voltage andhence runs under normal conditions. The star delta starters has the reconnecting arrangement and in addition it has the following features.1. An interlock to prevent direct switching to delta position.2. A push button (or) knob to stop from running condition. After operating this, the switch isbrought to the OFF position.3. An over load protection

.
This method is used in the case of the motor which one built t run normally with a delta connected starter winding. It consists of two wayswitch connect the motor in star for starting and then delta for normal running. The star connected applied voltage by a factor of 1/_3 andhence the torque developedbecause 1/_3 of that of which would have been developed if the motor war directly connected in the delta. The three types of star delta
starters are:1. Hand Operated2. Semi Automatic

3. Fully Automatic3. DIRECT ON LINE STARTER (or) D.O.L. STARTER:When fully voltage is supplied across the starters of indction motor, lot of current in drawn by the winding. This is because at the time ofstarting the induction motor are started using direct on line starter on heavy starting curent will flow through the winding such as heavystarting current of short duration may not cause to the motor. Since the construction of induction motor are rugged. More over it takes time
for temperature rise to endanger the utilization of motor windings. But this heavy impression current will cause large voltage drop with thelinear during the period of motor A direct alternate method at starting of induction motor is application up to starting of induction motor. TheON push button is pressed coil A becomes energized and if open contacts are closed when OFF button push button is pressed in a will getenergized and main contacts of the conductor open when themotor starts, in case of overload on the motor the contact of over load may be opened and sub sequently the motor will stop. In case ofover load the overload relay also opens the circuit of the coil and the contactor opens. In case of a supply failure while the motor is running,the coil is deenergized and the motor is isolated from the supply lines. After the supply is resumed the operator has to operate the startpush button for running the motor
