This document discusses the electrical system design for installing a 400 kW induction motor for a special purpose at the Reliance Patala Ganga Project in 1981. It calculates that the starting KVA of the motor is 3478.261 KVA and the ampere rating is 4839.12 AMP at 415 V and 304.27 AMP at 6.6 kV. It also lists qualities of wound rotor induction motors, including excellent starting torque for high inertia loads and lower starting current compared to squirrel cage induction motors.

AMPERE RATING 4839.12 AMP 304.27 AMP
Wound rotor induction motor qualities. Excellent starting torque for high inertia loads. Low starting current compared to squirrel cage induction motor. Speed is resistance variable over 50% to 100% full speed. Higher maintenance of brushes and slip rings compared to squirrel cage motor. The generator version of the wound rotor machine is known as a doubly-fed induction generator, a variable speed machine.
