    There are three main types of electrical braking: 1) plugging or reverse current braking, where the motor connections are changed to develop torque opposite to the rotor movement, slowing it down to zero speed; 2) rheostatic or dynamic braking, which involves resistors to dissipate the kinetic energy of the motor as heat; 3) regenerative braking, where the motor acts as a generator to feed energy back into the electrical supply.

    Types of electrical braking

    1. plugging or reverse current braking


    2. rheostatic or dynamic braking
    3. regenerative braking

    1.. plugging or reverse current braking=


    In this method of braking connection of motor are changed in such way that motor
    developes torque in opposite direction for braking condition to the movement of the rotor.
    Thus the motor speed will gradually decrese till zero speed is reached.
