    This document provides instructions for conducting a load test on a 1-phase induction motor to determine its performance characteristics. It lists the required equipment, including voltmeters, ammeters, wattmeters and tachometers. Formulas used to calculate torque, slip, output power, efficiency and power factor are provided. The procedure involves connecting the equipment, gradually increasing the load by adjusting the spring balance and recording corresponding current, voltage and speed readings. A model calculation, results table and post-test questions are to be included in the report.

    2. % Slip

    = [(Ns~ N) /Ns]* 100 pp

    3. Output power = (2NT) /60

    PRECAUTIONS

    1.The auto transformer should be at minimum position at the time of starting.


    2.There should not be any load at the time of starting.
    PROCEDURE
    1. Connections are made as per the circuit diagram.
    2. The load is increased in such a way that there is an increase in Ammeter.
    3. The corresponding Ammeter, Voltmeter, speed and spring balance readings are noted.
    4. Procedure is repeated till the rated current is reached.

    MODEL CALCULATION

    RESULT

    Thus the performance of 1 induction motor is done by load test and its characteristics
    curves were drawn.

    LOAD TEST ON 3 SQUIRREL CAGE INDUCTION MOTOR

    AIM
    To conduct a load test on 3 squirrel cage induction motor and hence obtain the
    performance characteristics.

    PRECAUTION
    1. TPST switch should be at open position.
    2. 3-phase autotransformer should be at minimum voltage position.
    3. There should be no-load at the time of starting (Loosen the belt on the brake drum)
    4. Brake drum should be filled with water.
    5. The DOL Starter handle must be in OFF position.

    PROCEDURE
    1. Connections are given as per the circuit diagram.
    2. Keep the motor on NO LOAD condition.
    3. Close the DPST switch and start the motor using DOL starter.
    4. Note the readings of ammeter voltmeter and wattmeter at No load. (Under No load
    condition, one of the wattmeter shows negative reading, therefore to take this wattmeter
    reading, interchange M & L connections and consider this reading as negative. Then for
    load conditions, change the M & L back to the original position.)
    5. Gradually increase the load and note down the readings of power, voltage and current.
    6. Repeat the above till the rated load current is reached.
    7. Release the load and switch off the DOL starter and supply.
    RESULT
    Thus the load test on 3 squirrel cage induction motor was conducted and
    necessary performance characteristics are obtained.
