Abstract
It is estimated that more than two thirds of electricity used by industry is utilised by electric motors, mainly induction squirrel cage motors, the real working horse of every industrial plant. These motors gained their primary position due to their excellent properties. These are: extreme simplicity of construction, high exploitation reliability, reasonable purchase price (equal to the energy cost consumed during the first two - three months of their usage) and relatively high efficiency when compared to the driven machines and apparatuses.
