Abstract
Induction motors are widely used in transportation, mining, petrochemical, manufacturing and in almost
every other field dealing with electrical power. These motors are simple, efficient, highly robust and rugged
thus offering a very high degree of reliability. But like any other machine, they are vulnerable to faults,
which if left unmonitored, might lead to catastrophic failure of the machine in the long run. On-line
condition monitoring of the induction motors has been widely used in the detection of faults. This paper
delves into the various faults and study of conventional and innovative techniques for induction motor
faults with an identification of future research areas.
