Two 3-\(\phi\) induction motors with \( p_1 \) and \( p_2 \) poles are cascaded together. Then the possible number of speeds are
Show Hint
The four possible speeds in a cascade connection correspond to the four possible pole configurations:
$$p_1, \quad p_2, \quad (p_1 + p_2), \quad \text{and} \quad |p_1 - p_2|$$
This results in exactly four operational speeds.
