An induction machine's rated speed is quoted at

  • A.full load, a few per cent below synchronous
  • B.no load, which is almost exactly the synchronous speed
  • C.the synchronous speed itself, whatever the load may be
  • D.standstill, at the instant of switching the machine on

Answer: A

Correct answer: full load, a few per cent below synchronous

The nameplate quotes what the machine does at its rated output, which is a few per cent below synchronous speed. Unloaded it runs almost exactly at synchronous, so a machine marked 1,440 rpm will be found turning at something close to 1,498 on no load - which is not a fault.
