The potential difference between a phase and neutral is
230v , but the potential difference between two phases is
400v. why?

Answer Posted / m.senthil

It happens due to ohms value of the copper/aluminum conductor of the winding. The ohmic value of phase to neutral is less than phase to phase. Total impedance of the circuit, Z=root of R square+ XL square

A 15 kw squirrel cage motor having a maximum efficiency of 90% on a continuous full load has temperature rise of 42 degrees celcius after 30 min and 52 degrees celcius after 1 hr under the above operation conditions. a) calculate its final steady state temperature rise on continuous load and the heating time constatnt. b) if the motor is operated on a short load for 9 min estimate its temperature rise. c) calculate the maximum overload that can be applied on a short, 9 min rating so that the temperature rise is the same as the final steady state temperature rise on continuous load.
