A 3-phase, 415 V, 50 Hz induction motor draws 5 times the rated current at rated voltage at starting. It is required to bring down the starting current from the supply to 2 times of the rated current using a 3-phase autotransformer. If the magnetizing impedance of the induction motor and no load current of the autotransformer is neglected, then the transformation ratio of the autotransformer is given by (round off to two decimal places).

A 3-phase, 415 V, 50 Hz induction motor draws 5 times the rated current at rated voltage
at starting. It is required to bring down the starting current from the supply to 2 times
of the rated current using a 3-phase autotransformer. If the magnetizing impedance of
the induction motor and no load current of the autotransformer is neglected, then the
transformation ratio of the autotransformer is given by. (round off to two decimal
places).
