Three Phase Induction Motor Details :

Three-phase induction motors

Three-phase induction motors are self-starting, so they require no starting device like single-phase motors. In a three-phase system, three wires provide the same voltage, but each phase is ramped up. The three-phase induction motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The two types of three-phase induction motors are :

• Squirrel cage motors
   
• Slip ring motors

Applications of three-phase induction motors

Three-phase induction motors are used for commercial and industrial purposes, ideal for higher-power applications.

• Lifts
   
• Cranes
   
• Hoists
   
• Large exhaust fans
   
• Lathe machines
   
• Crushers
   
• Oil extracting mills
   
• Textiles
   
• Commercial electric and hybrid vehicles
