Q6. (a) Describe how protection against the short circuit is provided.
B. A 4-pole, 3-phase induction motor operates from a supply whose frequency is 50 Hz. Calculate (i) Speed at
which the magnetic field of the stator is rotating, (ii) speed of the rotor when the slip is 0.04, (iii) the frequency
of the rotor current when the slip is 0.03.

Q10. A. Explain the effect of making incorrect phase and starter connections.
B. A 440V shunt motor tenets an armature current of 30A at 700 rev/min. The armature resistance is 0.7ohm. If
the flux is suddenly reduced by 20 per cent, to what value will the armature current rise momentarily? Assuming
unchanged resisting torque to motion, what will be the new steady values of speed and armature current? Sketch
graphs showing armature current and speed as functions of time during the transition from initial to final,
steady-state conditions.
