An eight-pole wave-connected armature has 600 conductors and is driven at 625 rev/min. If the flux per pole is 20 mWb, determine the generated emf.
Let, E→EMF in volt φ→Flux in weber A→Parallel path (for wave winding = 2) Z→No. of armature conductors N→speed in rpm P = Number of poles E = PφNZ/(60A) E = 8*0.020*625/(60*2) E = 500 V
The magnitude of earth fault current for a given fault position within a winding demands upon the winding connections and method of neutral grounding. Earth fault protection for an electric motor is provide by instantaneous relay having a setting of approximately 30% of motor rated current in the residual circuits of two CTs and with ground wire.
