What Happens If an Induction Motor Runs at Synchronous Speed?

Induction Motor at Synchronous Speed

Answer: When an induction motor operates at synchronous speed, it ceases to induce rotor currents, leading to loss of torque and failure to start. Reasoning: Induction motors rely on the relative motion between the rotating magnetic field and the rotor to induce currents and generate torque. At synchronous speed, this …
