INTRODUCTION
The aim of this project is to limit the starting current and increase the starting torque of an 3-phase slip ring induction motor using a PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER. There are different methods to control the speed of 3-ph Slip Ring Induction Motor. 1) Frequency control method 2) V/f control method 3) Rotor Emf Injection method 4) Rotor resistance method.

By using Rotor resistance control using PLC, Stator side hardware is not required.

At the time of normal running of induction motor, for a constant torque load, Slip is
proportional to rotor resistance. Therefore we can also control the speed of the Induction motor for a given load.

A PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLER (PLC) is a digital computer used for automation of electromechanical processes
PLC programs are typically written in a special application on a personal
computer, then downloaded by a direct-connection cable or over a network to the PLC. The program is stored in the PLC in non-volatile flash

memory.

Unlike general-purpose computers, the PLC is designed for multiple inputs

and output arrangements, extended temperature ranges, immunity to electrical noise, and resistance to vibration and impact.

There will be a AC -31GRAPH software which provides

programming the PLC as per the requirement of the application of

the user.
