What is locked rotor in three phase induction motor?
A motors locked rotor current is the same as the motors starting current. This is the point where the voltage is applied to a non rotating motor, time cycle zero. Because the motor is not rotation and generating a back EMF to oppose the inrush current, the current will go as high as 6 times the running current of the motor.
Is it necessary to have three phase rotor windings for the transmitter and motor in selsyn motor?

Is a motor that uses 17 amps to much on 20 amp fuse?
yes for continuous duty it must be at least 10% larger than the normal load they usually get you on water heaters that take 28 amps need to put those on a 40A with #8 wire not good on the 30A now if a motor rated fuse and nothing else will ever be on the circuit you can probably be correct with a 17 amp fuse and that is suitable for all the motor overload and locked rotor protection and it will provide 80 amps for starting
What happen if we do the 3 phase winding in rotor of induction motor and give the 3 phase supply only stator winding?
This is how an induction motor normally works, hence the name. The supply voltage is connected to the stator winding(s) and a current is induced in the rotor. A synchronous motor, on the other hand, will have current supplied to the rotor through slip rings and brushes. The rotor current is generally supplied as DC though, or else rectified in the rotor.
What is motor shaft speed?
It is the same thing as the motor's rotor speed given in revolutions per minute.

What is locked rotor?
Locked rotor current is the amount of current a motor would draw if you energize the motor and the rotor (the spinning shaft) doesn't spin.
What is LRA of a motor?
Locked rotor ampere
Why locked rotor test is performed?
Electrical machines such as motors are designed to withstand a certain maximum rated current (continuous) and a fault condition current for a short duration only. In order to practically verify this capability, a locked rotor test is performed on the motor as part of the final factory acceptance test. The motor rotor is mechanically locked and rated current is applied to the stator winding incrementally, starting from zero, all at rated supply voltage and frequency. Motor stator winding temperature is monitored and also the shaft output torque can also be calculated, if a load cell or strain gauge is connected to the torque arm. Therefore this locked rotor test (which is equivalent of a short circuit test for a generator) is used to verify the maximum current handling capability of the motor. Anush GE

LRA is 134 AMPS. what size breaker should be used?
LRA (locked rotor amps) is not used to calculate the breaker size. Breaker's are used to protect the size of the conductor that is connected to it. Motor calculations are based on the motor's FLA (full load amps).Conductor size is 125% of the motor's FLA.Breaker size is 250% of the motor's FLA.This is the only occasion when the breaker is sized larger that the conductors maximum amperage rating. This is due to the motor drawing up to 300 to 600% of its FLA when starting.If you state the motor's wattage, voltage or amperage this calculation can be calculated here.
What current would be drawn by a 15KW 400V AC motor with a locked rotor?
yes
What will cause a motor to go into a locked rotor state?
The only time a motor should go into a locked rotor condition is if the motors connected load jams causing the motor to stop turning. At this point if the motor control circuitry is sized to the motor's full load amperage, the high rise in current will trip the motor off line.
How do you measure lock rotor amps?
Compressor locked rotor amps are measured with an amp-probe or clip on ampmeter. Lock rotor amps are amps with the rotor not turning/moving, and the winding at ambient temperature. locked rotor amps are X4.5 to X5 times the FLA of motor name plate.
What are No Load And Locked Rotor tests on a three phase induction motor?
Doing a No Load test of a 3-phase induction motor involves the measuring of current, voltage, torque etc with no load on the rotor shaft, meaning that it is free to turn but is not driving anything else. Similarly a Locked Rotor test involves the measuring of current, voltage, torque etc with the rotor shaft "locked" i.e. prevented from turning, which is the worst loading condition the motor would ever have to contend with.

What does LRA mean in electrical terms?
Locked rotor amperage is the amperage the motor draws when the voltage is first applied to the motor and the rotor has not started to turn. This amperage is usually up to 300% of the motors running amperage. Once the rotor starts to turn the motor generates a back EMF (electro motive force) that opposes the high inrush current. This back EMF drives the amperage down until the motor gets up to its rated speed at which time the motor amperage will be at its run amperage.
