Answer / irfan

3 phase indution need rotor resistance starter,dol starter
etc. because to reduse heavy starting current and provide
overload and novoltage protection

Answer / sudipta

Starter is connected in series with the armature. Now, this
armature current is given by Ia=(v-Eb)/Ra. Here, v is
terminal voltage, Eb is back emf, Ra is armature resistance.
In the case of an induction motor,at the time of
starting,back emf is zero. So, Ia=v/Ra. As Ra is very small,
Ia is too high. So,a resistance(R) is connected in series
with the armature. So, the starting current decreases and
motor gets protection from overcurrent.

Answer / balakrishna shetty

When 3phase induction motor is directly connected to the supply, it takes heavy current at starting ( 5 to 7 Times the full load current ) and creates a large voltage drop in the line.Due to this
(a). Motor winding May be damaged.
(b) Neighbouring consumers are inconvenienced.
To avoid this starters are used.
