A three-phase induction motor is self-starting because the stator's windings are arranged in a three-phase configuration, and this three-phase configuration produces a rotating magnetic field. The rotating magnetic field induces a current in the rotor of the motor, and the current flowing through the rotor produces its own magnetic field. The interaction between the stator's magnetic field and the rotor's magnetic field causes the rotor to rotate, which in turn drives the shaft of the motor.
The three-phase configuration of the stator's windings is essential for the self-starting capability of a three-phase induction motor. In a single-phase induction motor, the stator's windings are arranged in a single-phase configuration, and this single-phase configuration does not produce a rotating magnetic field. As a result, a single-phase induction motor requires an external device, such as a capacitor, to produce a rotating magnetic field and to start the rotor of the motor.
In contrast, a three-phase induction motor does not require an external device to produce a rotating magnetic field and to start the rotor of the motor. The three-phase configuration of the stator's windings produces a rotating magnetic field strong enough to start the rotor of the motor, allowing a three-phase induction motor to start without the need for an external starting device.
In summary, a three-phase induction motor is self-starting because the stator's windings are arranged in a three-phase configuration, and this three-phase configuration produces a rotating magnetic field. The rotating magnetic field induces a current in the rotor of the motor, and the current flowing through the rotor produces its own magnetic field. The interaction between the stator's magnetic field and the rotor's magnetic field causes the rotor to rotate, which in turn drives the shaft of the motor. The three-phase configuration of the stator's windings is essential for the self-starting capability of a three-phase induction motor, allowing the motor to start without an external starting device.
