Abstract :
The paper indicates how the reconnection of the supply to a running induction motor can be effected in a manner that avoids excessive transient disturbances. An optimum condition is postulated for a matched reconnection and the paper indicates how this selected reclosure can be brought about. Typical results obtained by the sensed-switching technique are illustrated for a 3.75 kW (Shp) motor and are compared with results obtained during random switching of the same machine.
