SUMMARY
The current against slip relationship in induction machines indicates that as the slip increases, the current drawn from the supply line also increases. This relationship is crucial for understanding motor performance, particularly under varying load conditions. When the load exceeds the motor's capacity, the slip increases significantly, leading to a higher current draw that can trigger overload protection mechanisms. Proper interpretation of this relationship is essential for effective motor management and troubleshooting.
