Microcontroller Based Condition Monitoring System for Induction Motor

Abstract

Single phase motors are widely used because of their reliability, high efficiency low cost and good self-starting capability. These motors experience several types of electrical faults like over load, over/under voltages. Due to these faults, the windings of the motor get overheated which leads to insulation failure and reduces the lifetime of motor. This research proposed a control and condition monitoring protection scheme for induction motors using microcontroller Arduino UNO, bluetooth module HC-05 and various sensors.
