Only Single phase induction motors need capacitor to star it, because of single phase.
With the help of capacitor in the starting winding circuit it is easy to create rotating magnetic field inside motor which is responsible for running of motor.

∙ 11y agoTo start a single-phase induction motor, you need two electromagnetic fields that are roughly 90 degrees out of phase from each other. This results in a rotating magnetic field within the stator which drags the rotor around with it. To achieve this, the stator has two field windings, one of which has a capacitor connected in series with it. This results in two field currents to be roughly 90 degrees apart, thus creating the necessary out-of-phase magnetic fields. Once the machine is running, the capacitor can be removed from the circuit, and this is a achieved with a centrifugal switch. Some machines, on the other hand, keep the capacitor permanently in the circuit.

∙ 11y agothe purpose of the capacitor is to create a phase difference between main winding current and axillary winding. this would produce a rotating constant magnetic field which is required to produce the torque.

How three phase induction motor works without stator?
with 3 phase the rotating field is already set up when power is supplied with single phase you use a capacitor and a second winding to set up the rotating field
Is 3 phase induction motor is self starting?
Yes, that is one of the major advantages of a three-phase induction motor.
Do you need starter for 0.5HP three phase induction motor?
You never need a starter for a three-phase motor.
Is three phase induction motor used for hoisting device?
ya three phase squirrel cage induction motor used to hoist travel application in industrial cranes
What is run capacitor in single phase motor starter with three wire?
A run capacitor and a starter capacitor are not the same thing. A run capacitor is energized the entire time the motor is running, and a start capacitor is not. A run capacitor is one that changes the current on the windings of a single phase AC induction motor to create a rotating magnetic field to energize a second-phase winding. A start capacitor increases starting torque, allowing a motor to be turned on rapidly. It stays in the circuit only long enough to bring the motor to 3/4 of full speed. Some motors then continue to run with a run capacitor.
How do you wire a three phase motor with capacitor start?
I have never come across a three phase capacitor start motor. Any three phase motors I have worked on are induction start.
Applications of induction motor?
A single phase induction motor is mainly used in fans.It is capacitor start capacitor run induction motor.In three phase induction motor squirrel cage induction motor is mainly used in elevators,lifts,cranes.slip ring induction motor is mainly used in electrically driven ships.
Are any capacitor in three phase induction motor?
There doesn't have to be but capacitors are sometimes used to correct the power factor.
How three phase induction motor works without stator?
with 3 phase the rotating field is already set up when power is supplied with single phase you use a capacitor and a second winding to set up the rotating field
Theory for brake test on three phase induction motor?
why three phase induction motor is delta connected
How many microfarad of starting capacitor is best for 15hp 3phase motor?
Starting capacitors are only required for single-phase induction motors. They are not necessary for three-phase motors.
Is 3 phase induction motor is self starting?
Yes, that is one of the major advantages of a three-phase induction motor.
Do you need starter for 0.5HP three phase induction motor?
You never need a starter for a three-phase motor.
How do you start three phase induction motor?
Three Phase Induction Motor is self starting motor so you can start it by conneting to power lines directly if the power line capacity is sufficient.
Is a three phase induction motor self starting?
A three-phase motor has a steady rotating magnetic field generated by the stator coil, and the rotor just follows the field.
