When induction motor is started,we see all other electrial
appliances connected on the same supply are dimmed out for
some moment why?

Answer Posted / kuruvilla chacko

induction motor is a reactive power hogger.since reactive
power is connected with voltage,by absorbing huge amt of
reactive power,it depletes the voltage provided to other
machines such as fans,mixers etc...thus there is dimming.this
can be rectified by using capacitor banks.
