Why, the starting current of 3 phase Induction Motor is 7
to 8 times its rated current?

Answer Posted / stalin raj

The motor needs high torque to starts its rotation.The
torque is directly proportional to the square of the
current.Hence it takes a large current at starting.

in cvt,there are two windings,1a,1n and 2a,2n.in my one project i use only one winding i.e.1a,1n. the other winding is not in use, so i connect it in open delta and want to close it by ibsertibg thermal resistor. the output of cvt is 132kv/115/sqrt3. plesae tell me exact value of resistor, so i may close it to avoid the resonance phenomenin. send me answer on this email adress please. aetcon-po@aetcon.com
