Abstract
An induction motor is most widely used to obtain driving force in the industrial field. The induction motor is generated a high current at starting. A starting current is often more than five times of rated current. A high starting current can cause problems such as voltage drop in the power system. In order to solve these problems, a reactor starting method has been widely applied in a large motor capacity. There are differences in the operating characteristics of induction motor corresponding the switching time of reactor tap. In this study, I analyzed that current, torque, power of induction motor are different from changing time and tap setting values of reactor tap.
