how to calculate the speed of a induction motor without using tacho meter?..

Answer / thomas dsouza

The speed is given by the formula N=(120xf)/P where f is
the frequency say 50hz or 60hz and P is the no of poles.

A 4 pole motor shall be running at a speed of =(120x50)/4
that is 1500 rpm.

Answer / shahulsnfa

Mr. thomas you were saying about the rated speeed
(synchronous speed). the question is about the real speed
(shaft speed).

how to calculate the speed of a induction motor without using tacho meter?..

Answer / joshy govindan

IN COMMON MOTORS SLIP=4%
IN THAT CASE A MOTOR WITH SYNCHROUNOUS SPEED 1500RPM WOULD
BE A SHAFT SPEED = 1440 RPM
I think Mr. Kiru is correct

how to calculate the speed of a induction motor without using tacho meter?..

Answer / thomas dsouza

These questions are asked for interview purpose and one
likes to test the appplication of the academic knowledge of
the candidate at times in practical situations to know
about the particular equipment. This will not be accurate
for practical conditions. However, as you mentioned, the
speed mentioned was synchronous speed only and if one knows
the % slip it can be deducted to get the actual speed.

But for any purposeful recording/analysis of the actual
speed one may have to use a measuring instrument only to
get the exact values.

If there is a better answer anybody pls advice.
