Efficiency

Three phase induction motor is otherwise called as rotating transformer.but which has higher efficiency?
Ans:As a transformer is a static device,only loss in it are copper loss,core loss.Hence it's efficiency is highest among all electrical machines. It's efficiency is greater than 95%.
 Since 3 phase induction motor is a rotating device, mechanical losses are also included.It's efficiency is around 70%.
