In this paper conventional technique will be described, which can be used for the measuring various parameters of induction motor. This is followed by presenting some other, alternative, techniques. The two tests are described which are suitable to obtain the electrical parameters of symmetrical 1hp three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor. These are the blocked rotor test and no load test. By the application of these, it is possible to determine the parameters which are presented in the steady-state equivalent-circuit of determining an induction motor. One conventional method of determining the inertia of an induction motors is obtained by performing retardation tests. The angular rotor speed of the motor is monitored, following its disconnection from the stator supply. Since the inertia torque J dw/dt contains the inertia coefficient J and the friction and windage torque Bw contains the coefficient B, then J and B can be determined by performing retardation tests.

A determining method of the $\Gamma$ type eqivalent circuit parameters of induction motor driven by inverter source is proposed in this paper. The no-load test by rated frequency (60 Hz) and a blocked rotor test by 25% of rated frequency (l5Hz) are performed with inverter source, and the DC resistance of the stator winding is measured. To determine the more accurate parameters, four simultaneous equations obtained from equivalent circuit of the no-load test and blocked rotor test are solved by using initial values which are evaluated from simplified equivalent circuits. The induction motor performances are computed by using these parameters and compared with measured values of the tested motor. Then it is found that the compared results show good agreement between them.

This paper presents the calculation method for the equivalent-circuit parameters and torque characteristics of squirrel-cage induction motors. The measurement of motor parameters were calculated by the stator resistance test, the blocked rotor test and no load test to T type equivalent-circuit. Especially, this paper describes the test results obtained by using hall sensor and strain gauge for the current and torque characteristics of induction motors. Three-phase squirrel-cage induction motor which has 1[hp] was used to the test and the parameters obtained by the test were compared with the maker parameters.

This paper presents methods of parameter measurement and starting characteristics of a 3 phase induction motor. The motor parameters measured by DC test, blocked rotor test, and no load test are used as the input data for computer simulation. Starting characteristics are analyzed through computer simulation using measured parameters, and the simulation results are compared with the experimental results obtained by using strain gauge attached on the motor shaft. It is conformed that the experimental results are very similar to those of the simulation.
