Answer / m s kumar
Starting Current is the current taken by an electric
machine at the time of starting. It is typically 5 to 6
times the rated current of the machine. Since torque of an
electric motor is proportional of current (or square of the
current), the starting torque is high or low if the
starting current is high or low respectively.

Answer / kamlesh g patel
starting current of motor is same as inrush current of
transformer.
starting current of motor is about 5-6 times its rated
current & this is due to non availability of back emf
during starting.
motor torque is proportional to the current means high
starting current produces high strting torque which helps
in starting the machine from stndstill condition.

When testing an earthing connection, we use a 60 or 100 candle bulb with a phase connected direct from supply and the other wire to the new earthing provided.If the bulb glows then the earth is ok.Else earth connection is not Ok. So, why dont we can use all the home appliances taking a single wire from the phase and the return connection to Earth instead of return connection to neutral?
