a series motor started without load can go into a condition called runaway. The motor will rapidly accelerate to unsafe speeds literally pulling itself apart. This condition should never be allowed to happen. Consult a professional when installing any electrical equipment.

What is starting torque?

The torque which is produced during the starting of motor is simply called as starting torque.


What property does not apply to a motor?

A motor is a machine that transforms electrical energy into mechanical energy. It does not produce electricity on its own, so it is not a generator.


FCMA starter principle and working during starting induction motor?

The FCMA (Field Control Motor Arrangement) starter principle involves controlling the field current to manage the starting torque and speed of an induction motor. During startup, the motor is initially supplied with reduced voltage to limit the inrush current, and the field current is adjusted to ensure smooth acceleration. As the motor approaches its rated speed, the field current is gradually increased to optimize performance. This method enhances efficiency and prolongs the motor's lifespan by preventing mechanical and electrical stress during startup.

What could be causing the furnace blower motor noise when starting up?

Possible causes of furnace blower motor noise during startup could include worn bearings, a loose fan belt, or debris in the motor.


Why motor does not trips on instantaneous current during starting?

If the protection device is bimetalic type then it takes a few seconds to get heated up before tripping off. In case of other advanced type of protection devices, there could be a preset timer to allow a certain amount of high starting current. In both the cases, the avoidence of tripping during starting is by design, since it is known that the motor takes a high starting current.

Disadvantages of a squirrel cage motor?

Squirrel Cage Induction Motor Disadvantages:Some of disadvantages or demerits of squirrel cage induction motors are listed below:Main disadvantage of squirrel cage induction motor is that they have poor starting torque and high starting currents. Starting torque will be in the order of 1.5 to 2 times the full load torque and starting current is as high as 5 to 9 times the full load current. In slip ring induction motors, higher starting torque can be attained by providing an external resistance in the rotor circuits during starting of the slip-ring induction motor. This arrangement in slip-ring induction motors also reduces the high inrush currents during starting of induction motor.Squirrel cage induction motors are more sensitive to the supply voltage fluctuations. When the supply voltage is reduced, induction motor draws more current. During voltage surges, increase in voltage saturates themagnetic components of the squirrel cage induction motor.Speed control is not possible in squirrel cage induction motor. This is one of the major diadvantages of squirrel cage induction motors.The total energy loss during starting of squirrel cage motor is more compared to slip ring motors. This point is significant if the application involves frequent starting
