SINGLE PHASING, PHASE REVERSAL, OVERVOLTAGE, UNDER VOLTAGE AND OVERHEATING PROTECTION OF THREE PHASE INDUCTION MOTOR

This paper tends to develop for protection of three phase induction motor from single phasing, phase reversal, over voltage and under voltage. Due to this electrical fault the winding of motor get heated which lead to insulation failure and thus reduce the life time of motor. This fault is generated in induction motor due to variation in induction motor parameters. When three phase induction motor runs continuously, it is necessary to protect the motor from these anticipated faults. Three phase induction motor generally directly connected through the supply, if the supply voltage has sag and swell due to fault the performance of motor is affected and in some cases winding is burned out. When phase sequence (RYB) is reversed due to wrong connection then motor start rotating in another direction, if supply system has only one phase and other phase is disconnected then it is single phasing problem.
