AIM ->

To perform the speed control test on slip ring induction motor by rotor
resistance control method. Plot the motor speed characteristics at different
values of applied resistance in slip ring of induction motor.

Procedure ->
Step 1: Make the proper connection by clicking the node as instructed below. If
the wire is misplaced, click the node number to detach the nodes' wire.
Step 2: Click "Check" button.
1. If connection is correct, an alert appears. Click ok. Now, go to
step 4.
2. If connection is wrong, an alert appears. Click ok. Now, go to
step 3.
Step 3: Check the connection and either detach the incorrect wire connection or
Click on reset button and start from step 1.
Step 4: Switch on the MCB.
Step 5: Click anywhere on the autotransformer.
Step 6: Slide the knob of the Rheostat to change the resistance.
Step 7: Take readings from Rotor, Voltmeter, Ammeter and Watt-meter.
Step 8: Click "Add to table" button to insert the values in table.
Step 9: Follow the procedure from step 6 to step 8, till you have the 6 readings
on table.
Step 10: After taking minimum 6 readings, click the "Graph" button.
Step 11: Click "Print" button, to print the full connections with graph and table.
Observations ->
➼ The observation table is given below –

The graph (Resistance vs Speed) is shown below →


→ The resistance of this motor depends upon the slip, and independent of the
torque. So, by varying resistance after the motor has attained rated speed, the
slip value can be increased keeping the torque constant.
→ As the resistance of the motor increases, the speed decreases and vice versa.
