What causes stator failure?

4 Answers

Answer :

Speed of the motor increases rapidly


Answer :

When the load supplied by the motor decreases abruptly but the voltage is kept constant this may cause overheating of the stator winding leading to failure of the stator.

Answer :

Enough rate of current flow instead heavy current flow in the conductor causes stator failure due to heat(temperature) increase.

Answer :

Stator faliur due to moistur. Due to priodically heatup of winding.
