It is overloaded.
take the motor loose and see if it runs normally
if its on a machine that used to work check
bearings
misalignment
bent shafts
This is a good indication that the motor is being overloaded. If the motor load is belt driven, remove the belt and then check the motor amps. If it goes back to normal FLA then there is a problem with the driven load. If the motor amperage stays high check the motor bearings for the problem.
armature
Across the line starting of a motor can be as high as 300% of the full load amps.
Large DC motors with field windings instead of permanent magnets present a very heavy load when starting. To prevent fuses blowing, a series of ever smaller resistors are sequentially switched in series with the motor. As the motor picks up speed, a back EMF in opposition to the applied voltage limits the maximum current. When the motor reaches it's running speed the 'starter' is out of circuit.
mane lak tau
The starting current is high because when the motor is not rotating no back-emf is generated, leaving the starting current to be determined by the armature resistance, which should be low.
A loose connection at the motor and/or bad ground at the blower motor. If it is getting current then the motor may have a bad spot/ high amp draw and need to be replaced.
The windings of the motor will be gonebecause of high current diectly goes to the windings of motor.
due to high reluctance air gap magnetisation current is very high as a result no load current is more
because of starting current of induction motor is very high and it damages the insulation of motor
dc series motor :A series-wound DC motor has a low resistance field and armature circuit. Because of this, when voltage is applied to it, the current is high. (Ohms Law: current = voltage/resistance). The advantage of high current is that the magnetic fields inside the motor are strong, producing high torque (turning force), so it is ideal for starting a train. The disadvantage is that the current flowing into the motor has to be limited, otherwise the supply could be overloaded and/or the motor and its cabling could be damaged.
Reduce current - reduce power.
a: usually taking the high side of the buss or the return and measuring the current
This is a good indication that the motor is being overloaded. If the motor load is belt driven, remove the belt and then check the motor amps. If it goes back to normal FLA then there is a problem with the driven load. If the motor amperage stays high check the motor bearings for the problem.
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.
