(MCSA) is considered the most popular fault detection method now a day because it can easily detect the common machine fault such as turn to turn short ckt, cracked /broken rotor bars, bearing deterioration etc. The present paper discusses the fundamentals of Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA) plus condition monitoring of the induction motor using MCSA. In addition, this paper presents four case studies of induction motor fault diagnosis. The results show that Motor current signature analysis (MCSA) can effectively detect abnormal operating conditions in induction motor applications. I.
