how we protect the motor & what are the components required
for that ?

Answer Posted / omar aziz

There are many things that need consideration while
protecting a motor. Motor faliures mainly occur due to
winding faliure. This could be due to overcurrent ,
overvoltage, etc... Back in the early days people strongly
relied on fuses but now we have motor protection relays
that monitor tempratures , currents , voltages etc.. ex GE
MULTILIN MOTOR PROTECTION RELAY
