Why the Motor takes High Current in Starting time?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / ashli
when a motor rotates a back emf(E) is induced in the
armature which will oppose the supply voltage(V).. E is
proportional to the speed ie at zero speed there ll be no
back emf.. the current thro' the armature is (V-E)/R; where
R is the armature winding resistance(small value). at the
instant of starting speed is zero and so the value of E.
thus the current = V/R becomes very high.. once it attain
speed E is generated and current falls down

Answer / prakash suhane
During start motor requires high torque to get rated speed.
Requirement of high starting torque leads to large back
E.M.F and t6o overcome this back EMF high current flows
during starting of motor. once motor reached its rated
speed current reduced as per load current on motor.

Answer / rambabu
During start motor requires high torque to get stating load
is zero.also this will given lower o/p voltege per RPM.but a
higher current per phase

Answer / chreamz
During starting time, the motor acts like a blocked rotor.
The flux created on the armature turn to oppose that of the
rotor. Hence the motor amperage rises far beyond the
rating. It's estimated that, during starting time of the
motor, Operating Current = 6 times Norminal Current.

Why neutral cable carry current.
need to make a report. Need to choose a 3phase induction motor. Load conditions motor will operate in : Maximum Load: 30 Kw Speed: 2950 rpm Ambient temp: 20 cent Supply voltage: 440V Frequency: 50Hz need to look for the safety factor when choosing the motor, went through catalouge found a few, but dont know how to choose the safety factor allowing an extra load something above 30 KW to avoid any harm.
