Integrated Fault Detection in AC Induction Motors Using Electrical and Vibration Signals

Abstract

This article emphasizes the importance of identifying faults in critical components, particularly rotor bars. Rotor bars are integral parts of the motor's rotor assembly, and any damage or faults in these components can significantly impact the motor's overall performance. The main focus of the article is to explore a method for detecting faults in AC induction motors, with a specific emphasis on identifying broken rotor faults. The method involves a systematic approach to fault detection that utilizes both electrical and vibration signals generated by the motor.
