Slip (electricity)

A numerical value used in describing the performance of electrical couplings and induction machines. In an electrical coupling, slip is defined simply as the difference between the speeds of the two rotating members. In an induction motor, slip is a measure of the difference between the machine'...

Description
Summary:A numerical value used in describing the performance of electrical couplings and induction machines. In an electrical coupling, slip is defined simply as the difference between the speeds of the two rotating members. In an induction motor, slip is a measure of the difference between the machine's synchronous speed and its shaft speed.
