will damage to measuring instruments.

7)Make sure all connection are properly connected and all knobs at
bench power supply is set to 0 volt before calling lecture to verifying
the circuit connection. Note by ignoring all these procedure will result
in a penalty of mark deduction.
8)Turn on main switch of three phase bench power supply and the lamp

and current.IL= Delta connection. And VL=VP.
10)Observe the rotation direction of the motor then turn OFF or switch
off the power supply. Change any two supply terminal ,switch On or
turn On the power supply with observe the rotation the direction again
.
`
11)Asemble Three Phase motor illustreted in Figure 2 and ensure all
that connection tied properly.

Discussion
1)With related ,explain the principle operation of Three Phase Motor.
Answer

When three phase supply is given to the three phase stator winding of the induction motor,a
rotating magnetic field is developed around the stator which rotates at synchronous speed.
This rotating magnetic field passes through the air . Due to the relative speed between the
stationary rotor conductors and the rotating magnetic field, an emf is induced in the rotor
conductors. As the rotor conductors are short circuit, current starts flowing through it. And
as current carrying rotor conductors are placed in the magnetic field produced by the stator,
they experience a mechanical force torque which moves the rotor in the same direction as
that of the rotating magnetic field. the induction motor can't run at the synchronous speed
because at synchronous speed the induction motor can not develop any torque to move the
rotor from its stationary position.
2)Explain the rotor construction of Three Phase Motor below:
a)Squirrel Cage Rotor
Answer
Squirrel Cage Rotor consists of a series of conducting bars laid into slots carved in face of the
rotot.Any Induction Motor has a Stator and a Rotor. The construction of Stator for
any induction motor is almost the same. But the rotor construction differs with
respect to the type which is specified above.
b)Slip Ring Rotor
Answer
The slip ring induction motors usually have a Wound rotor. This type of rotor
is provided with a 3-phase, It is complete set of 3 phase winding that is a mirror
image of winding on the stator.These three windings are starred internally
and the other end of these three windings are brought out and connected to
Connection and end of the three rotor wire are tied to slip rings on the rotor
shaft. The rotor winding are shortened through brush riding on the slip rings

3)Explain briefly status of Three phase stator winding by referring to
the table 1 result. What happen if the resistance of the winding result
show zero or infinite value??
Answer
Resistance of the winding show in zero or infinite value, the motor
still can run or spinning
4)Explain the advantages and disadvantages of Squirrel Cage and Slip
Ring rotor.
Answer
Advantages of Squirrel Cage Rotor
Squirrel Cage Induction motors are cheaper in cost compared to Slip
Ring Induction motors and Squirrel Cage motors are better cooled
compared to slip ring induction motors.
Disadvantages of Squirrel Cage Rotor
Squirrel cage induction motor is that they have poor starting torque
and high starting currents. Squirrel cage induction motors are more
sensitive to the supply voltage fluctuations.

Advantages Slip Ring rotor.
High Starting torque with low starting current. Maximum starting can
be attained in the slip ring motor compared to squirrel cage motor by
inserting an external resistance in each phase of the rotor circuit and
cutting the resistance during starting.
Disdvantages Slip Ring rotor.
Initial and maintenance cost is more compared to squirrel cage
motor because presence of slip rings, brushes, short circuiting devices
.Speed regulation is poor when operated with external resistances in
rotor circuit.
5)Explain why Squirrel Cage rotor are widely use in industrial today??
Answer
Because the squirrel cage induction motor is cheaper and high starting
torque.

6)State the application of this motor.
Answer
=Fan ,blower s,compressors ,electric vehicles and conveyor drive
7)Explain the differences between star and delta configuration of three
phase motor.

Answer
Delta
Delta pictures a triangle and each side is a modifier or motor winding.
It is call the 3 corners of the triangle A, B ,and C.

This is connection Delta
Formula
VL(line)=VP(Phase)
IL(line)=

Star
Star connection take our trio above and use your wire cutters. Also
can calling is Y connection same like delta which have A, Band C wire
but have three sides join in the center ,connect of fourth wire. Call
this is wire neutral.

This is connection Star or Y connection
Formula
IL(line)=IP(Phase)
VL(line)=
8)State Three (3)advantage and Three disadvantage of Three Phase

9)Define Slip??
Answer
Define slip as the speed of the rotor in relation to the rotating field.

10)Explain how to change the direction of three phase motor??
