Motor Operation
1. Motor starts with 3-gang Rheostat set to highest resistance giving low starting current and slow speed.
The Rheostat Method of Starting
2. The Rheostat is adjusted slowly thus reducing rotor resistance to zero.3. This increases rotor speed up to its maximum value4. Starting torque can be easily adjusted by initial resistance setting to suit the load.
Motor Operation
1. Motor starts with 3 resistors in each rotor circuit giving low starting current and slow speed.

Torque-Speed Curve for a four pole motor
Increasing Rotor Resistance
6. Decreases Starting Current
3. Increases Starting Torque
4. Decreases Speed in running region for given load
5. Decreases Speed where maximum torque occurs
1. Does not change synchronous speed
2. Does not change maximum torque
