Do you know the faults occurs generally in motors and how to rectify them?..

Answer / shailza

general occuring faults in motor are:
1. inst. overcurrent
I(1)the current is equal to 8.5 times the nominal current
rectification-isolate breaker, take megger and check motor
T.B
2. Earth Fault I(0)
rectification-take megger
3. Stalling I1(t)
rectification- take no load trial with decoupling of motor
4. Thermal overload Ith
rectification- check current balance
5.phase imbalance I(2) Check motor T.B and take megger.

Answer / kannan

1. Over load tripping - Reset OL relay.
2. Ball bearing failure - To be identify by heavy noice and
offton tripping & Over heat - Change bearing.
3.Monthly once clean the body of the motor. cooling will be
better.
4. Winding problem. - Check by megger of multi meter.
Rewinding to be done.
5. Over load relay itself problem some times.

Answer / kokkiligadda venkata raju

over load trip
to control the ratings

under maintenance problem that means lubrications,cleaning
in this minimise to proper maintenance

remove the light damage parts in this cause to totally
motor damazed
it' minimise to replace the parts

over temperature
it's minimise to fix the fans to rotor

This is about the recent problem that we have faced in our project site. We have 6/7.5 MVA. 66/11kV three phase star - star power transformer. The neutral was solidly connected to the earthing mat. But because of high resistance of earthing mat (130 ohm on LV and 180 ohm on HV), one day LV side neutral earthing conductor melted and we had a huge damage. Can any one plz tell me what might happen when we connect power transformer neutral to the earthing mat which has high resistance (>100 ohm ) ?????

Dear All, In a 400V power system, ratio of three current transformers installed incoming switchgear is 4000/1. Maximum three phases short circuit current of this system is 48kA. One CT is installed on neutral of upstream transformer (6/0.42kV, solidly earthed) for 51G protection. Would you please inform me about the correct CT ratio of this current transformer (on neutral)?? Thanks a million
