why contactor not provided between output of VFD and motor?

Answer Posted / nandan d shanbhag

Due to electromechanical bouncing of the contactor
contacts , voltage spikes are generated which in turn will
result in failure of smiconductors in the drive. However
due to eletrical regulaton if contactor needs to be
provided for electrical isolation then there must be delay
of 1 sec before starting the inverter after contactor is on
and contactor should be made of atleast .5 second after the
inverter is made off.

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
