Review of induction motor testing and monitoring methods for inter-turn stator winding faults

This paper provides a literature review on inter-turn short-circuit faults in stator windings of induction motors. As evidenced by credible surveys stator winding breakdown is a large group of induction motor failures which undetected inter-turn fault is considered as the root cause for this category of the fault. Although monitoring approach are divided into different categories, we focused on continuous on-line methods due to the installation of induction motors in many continues processes.
