Hello,

Im working on simulation for induction motor. But i'm little bit confused with making a circuit. The example A is from flux tutorial and B is something what i made.


1. In example A, is this circuit represent star connection of stator (all coil conductor connected in one point and one ground) or can i connected them seperate like is example B (every circuit, coil have ground connection) and what is the diffrence ?


2. How to connect squirrel cage. Are he need to bee connected to the circuit like in example A or can he be connected separately to the ground like a example B ?


Thank you,

Best regards.

    Hello; 

     

    If the you supply with balanced three phase current system, A or B are OK. If you supply with Voltage sources, you need to use A. But why do you want to use B configuration ?

     

    Please find bellow the answers to your questions:

     

    1- A is a star connection, but you need to add in parallel a big resistance:

    2- The squirrel cage component need to be connected to the ground, so even in Circuit A, you can connect it seprately to the ground.

    Thank you very much for fast reply.
    So if i want simulate delta connection it will be like this.
