Why star delta starter is preferred with induction motor?

Electrical Engineering test 4

Star delta starter is preferred with induction motor due to following reasons:
Starting current is reduced 3-4 times of the direct current due to which voltage drops and hence it causes less
losses.
Star delta starter circuit comes in circuit first during starting of motor, which reduces voltage 3 times, that is why
current also reduces up to 3 times and hence less motor burning is caused.
In addition, starting torque is increased and it prevents the damage of motor winding.

Electrical Engineering test 5

State the difference between generator and alternator

Electrical Engineering test 9

Generator and alternator are two devices, which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. Both have the
same principle of electromagnetic induction, the only difference is that their construction. Generator persists
stationary magnetic field and rotating conductor which rolls on the armature with slip rings and brushes riding
against each other, hence it converts the induced emf into dc current for external load whereas an alternator has a
stationary armature and rotating magnetic field for high voltages but for low voltage output rotating armature and
stationary magnetic field is used.

Why AC systems are preferred over DC systems?


Due to following reasons, AC systems are preferred over DC systems:
a. It is easy to maintain and change the voltage of AC electricity for transmission and distribution.
b. Plant cost for AC transmission (circuit breakers, transformers etc) is much lower than the equivalent DC
transmission
c. From power stations, AC is produced so it is better to use AC then DC instead of converting it.
d. When a large fault occurs in a network, it is easier to interrupt in an AC system, as the sine wave current will
naturally tend to zero at some point making the current easier to interrupt.

How can you relate power engineering with electrical engineering?


Power engineering is a sub division of electrical engineering. It deals with generation, transmission and distribution
of energy in electrical form. Design of all power equipments also comes under power engineering. Power engineers
may work on the design and maintenance of the power grid i.e. called on grid systems and they might work on off
grid systems that are not connected to the system.

What are the various kind of cables used for transmission?


Cables, which are used for transmitting power, can be categorized in three forms:
Low-tension cables, which can transmit voltage upto 1000 volts.
High-tension cables can transmit voltage upto 23000 volts.
Super tension cables can transmit voltage 66 kV to 132 kV.

Why back emf used for a dc motor? highlight its significance.


The induced emf developed when the rotating conductors of the armature between the poles of magnet, in a DC
motor, cut the magnetic flux, opposes the current flowing through the conductor, when the armature rotates, is
called back emf. Its value depends upon the speed of rotation of the armature conductors. In starting, the value of
back emf is zero.

What is slip in an induction motor?


Slip can be defined as the difference between the flux speed (Ns) and the rotor speed (N). Speed of the rotor of an
induction motor is always less than its synchronous speed. It is usually expressed as a percentage of synchronous
speed (Ns) and represented by the symbol S.

Explain the application of storage batteries.

Storage batteries are used for various purposes, some of the applications are mentioned below:
For the operation of protective devices and for emergency lighting at generating stations and substations.
For starting, ignition and lighting of automobiles, aircrafts etc.
For lighting on steam and diesel railways trains.
As a supply power source in telephone exchange, laboratories and broad casting stations.
For emergency lighting at hospitals, banks, rural areas where electricity supplies are not possible.

Q:why rating of transformer in KVA and for motor rating isi n hp or KW.
A: Transformer losses depends on current (CU loss) & Voltage (Iron loss) (VA). So its rated in KVA. Also TFR is
independent from load PF.
But in motor the losses depends of load power factor. That's why motor rated in KW.
boopathi 12-17-2014 09:22 PM
electrical engg
Rating of the motor is also depends of PF.
P=Root3 V*I*PF.
So PF increase the power of the motor is also increases.
