| dc.description | Induction motor is one of the most important motors used in industrial applications. The operating condition may sometime lead the machine into different fault situations. The main types of external faults experienced by these motors are overloading, single phasing, and unbalanced supply voltage, locked rotor, and phase reversal, ground fault, under voltage and over voltage.
Condition monitoring and fault diagnosis of induction motors has been a challenging task for engineers and researchers in many industries. Current monitoring techniques are usually applied to detect various induction motor faults such as stator winding faults, bearing faults etc. This is because the basic electrical quantities associated with electromechanical parts such as current and voltage are readily measured by tapping into the existing system of voltage and current transformers that is always installed as a part of protection system. | en_US |
| dc.description.abstract | The project is basically about design and implementation of fault detection and protection of three phase induction motor using microcontroller via developed mobile phone application to enable the operation of induction motor continuously with minimum human interaction.
In this project motor faults like over/under voltage, overloading, unbalanced voltage, over/under current are detected and motor switch off automatically to prevent any other damage and after clearance of the fault the motor starts automatically. All monitoring of the motor parameters is done on the developed mobile application. | en_US |
