Answer / manishsingh

air gap high = leakage flux high = mutual flux low = X high = pf low = torque low

generally we put .5mm airgap in IM

Answer / kapil bhatt

SINCE THE TORQUE DEVELOPED IN THE MOTOR DEPENDS ON THE AIR
GAP ALSO, INCREASING THE GAP WILL GIVE US A LESSER TORQUE
BECAUSE THE MAGNETIC FIELDS OF STATOR AND ROTOR WILL NOT
STRONGLY CLUTCH TOGETHER THEREBY GIVING US A LESSER SPEED.

Please help me regarding my one concern. - During earth pit testing we noticed that the Clean earth pit and dirty earth pit showing continuity (Resistance value - 5ohm) . I want to know that if both earth pit have separate location and there is not internal looping between PIT then why such continuity is showing on it . Because of this issue the field side all earthing point showing short. In PLC panel we are providing two types of earthing cable which is coming from separate earth pit (Clean and Dirty earth pit) because of earth PIT showing short our PLC is not complying spec . please help regarding this issues.
