defination of reactor

Answer Posted / gunasekaran

reactor is a coil it is using at electrical network it
supply inductive reactance to the system.
there are two type of reatance
1.shunt reactor.
2.series reactor.
shunt reactor is used at EHV line for reducing the ferranti
effect.
series reactor is limit the fault current it is connected
B/W two system.

Is This Answer Correct ?    2 Yes 0 No

I have a drawing of a wound rotor induction motor for a crane. This crane motor has 5 forward speeds & 5 reverse speed implemented of course with different amount of resistance for each speed setting selected. What has got me scratching around is the fact that 8 of the 10 speed selections switch in uneven (unbalanced) amounts of resistances on each of the 3 connections to the motor's rotor.Can this be possible? I would have assumed this would produce unbalanced rotor currents and therefore vibration in the motor. I would greatly appreciate anyone's comments on this. Many thanks, Confused.
