Dataset on the performance of a three phase induction motor under balanced and unbalanced supply voltage conditions

Three phase induction motors (TPIM) are extensively used for various applications in the industry for driving cranes, hoists, lifts, rolling mills, cooling fans, textile operations, and so forth. TPIM are designed to operate on balanced three phase power supply, but sometimes three phase supply line voltages to which the TPIM is connected may be unbalanced. In this data article, the operational data of a TPIM operating under changing voltage scenarios is profiled to determine the variations in the magnitude of the operational parameters of the motor. The magnitude of each of the line voltages was separately varied from the balanced state (0% unbalance) until 5% voltage unbalance condition was achieved, in line with the recommendations and guidelines of the National Electrical Manufactures Association. The motor parameters; both mechanical and electrical, at various slip values were collected in six sets for the 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5% unbalance voltage conditions. Frequency distributions and statistical analysis were carried out to identify the data pattern and data variation trends among the parameters in the dataset.
