Electric Braking • Specific applications of electric drive
1. Regenerative braking :-
(a) Equalizer connection (b) Cross connection
In this method, no energy is drawn from the supply
during the braking period and some of the energy
feedback to the supply system.
The braking torque generated in this motor is in the
opposite direction of rotation of the rotor.
It can be applied to both DC and AC motors.
2. Plugging -
In this method, the motor is reconnected to the
supply in such a way that it has to develop torque in
opposite direction to the movement of the rotor.
It can be done by reversing the connections of the
armature.
3. Dynamic braking-
For dynamic braking the armature is disconnected
from supply and external resistance is connected
across armature waste kinetic energy, thus a braking
performed here.
Dynamic braking is also known as rheostatic
braking.

Synchronous machine •
Method to make Synchronous Motor self started-
3-φ synchronous motor is not self started so, they
needs following starting methods-
1. By external prime mover.
2. By pony motor.
3. By damper winding.
Note:- Damper winding used only for salient type
rotor.
• Hunting- It is known as 'phase swing'.
Hunting comes due to sudden change of load on a 3-
φ synchronous motor by which its speed oscillates
about synchronous speed (Ns) and torque angle (δ)
Stator also oscillates at reference, this phenomenon called
as hunting.
Causes of hunting due to-
Sudden load variation on synchronous motor.
Fault in stator winding.
Fault in supply system.
Fault in field supply system.
Harmonics in 3-φ supply system.
Armature winding on stator and field winding done
Effect of Hunting-
on rotor.
Motor will be more heated. Net work done decreases.
Laminated silicon steel used.
Bearings may be damaged. Stress developed at shaft.
Concentrated winding used.
Open slots are used. • Remedies or Methods to overcome from hunting-

servomotor
1. Having small area of brush contact so losses are less.
2. Used for low power applications.
3. More efficient, reliable, reduces radio frequency

Encoder Inversion of Decoder circuit is known as Encoder.
Encoder is used to convert other codes to binary
such as -
• Octal to Binary encoder (8×3 lines)
• Decimal to BCD encoder (10×4 lines)
• Hexadecimal to Binary encoder (16×4 lines)
