Q) The starting torque of a squirrel-cage induction motor is

  • full-load torque
  • slightly more than full-load torque
  • low
  • negligible
Solution:

The motor draws about 5 to 6 times current of its full load current and produce very less torque. The most of the current is reactive in nature and does not contribute in production of torque. That is why the starting torque of the squirrel cage induction motor is low.
