An induction motor has a shaft circuit current 7 times the full load current and a full load slip of 4 percent. Its line starting is 7 1.96 4 49 66 None 996. If stator voltage of a SCIM is reduced to 50 percent of its rated value, torque developed is reduced by percent of its full load value. 50 25 75 57.7 None 1 out of 100 Name Phone Your quiz is running out of time! few seconds are remaining.
