1. INTRODUCTION
The increasing complexity of electrical machines and their growing integration into critical
infrastructure have heightened the demand for robust fault diagnosis techniques to ensure operational
reliability, safety, and efficiency. Overcurrent, overvoltage, and earth-fault protection have been used as
standard safety measures for decades. However, faults that are not found can disrupt operations, cause schedule
delays, and result in large financial losses, so we need more proactive and accurate fault detection methods.
The significance of three-phase induction motors in various industries lies in their high motive power
generation, durability, and low maintenance costs. Approximately 90% of industrial equipment worldwide uses
these motors as the prime mover, highlighting their critical role in industrial operations [1]–[4]. They are known
for their robust nature and reliable performance, making them indispensable for industrial processes.
Additionally, a wide range of industrial applications favor these motors for their ability to provide flexible
production control and soft motor start-up, making them a versatile and efficient solution.
Electrical machine faults can be roughly grouped into five areas: problems with the stator, bad
connections between the stator windings [5]–[9], changes in the air gap that are either dynamic or static, shorted
rotor field windings, and bearing and gearbox failures. These faults can manifest in various forms, including
overheating, vibration, noise, and changes in motor current signatures. Early detection and accurate
identification of these faults are crucial for implementing timely maintenance strategies, preventing catastrophic
failures, and ensuring optimal machine performance. The challenge of fault detection in electrical machines has
led to the development of numerous diagnostic techniques. We can broadly classify these techniques into two
categories: non-invasive and semi-invasive methods. Non-invasive techniques do not require direct contact with
the machine, relying instead on external measurements such as temperature, vibration, acoustic noise, and radio
frequency (RF) emissions. Examples of non-invasive techniques include temperature measurement, infrared
thermography, vibration analysis, acoustic noise analysis, and RF emission monitoring [6]. Semi-invasive
techniques, on the other hand, require some level of physical access to the machine, such as partial disassembly
or the insertion of probes. Examples of semi-invasive techniques include motor current signature analysis
(MCSA), online partial discharge (PD) testing, and axial flux component analysis [9].
In recent years, advanced diagnostic approaches based on artificial intelligence (AI) and neural
network techniques have emerged as promising tools for fault detection in electrical machines [10]–[15] These
methods use machine learning algorithms to look at complicated patterns in motor data. This allows them to
find small problems that may indicate a problem more accurately and sensitively than other methods. AI-based
fault diagnosis techniques are particularly well-suited for large datasets of motor data, allowing them to
continuously monitor machine health and detect trends that may lead to future faults. This comprehensive
review article provides a detailed overview of the diverse range of fault diagnosis techniques for electrical
machines, examining their effectiveness in detecting and classifying various types of faults. We will delve into
the principles, applications, and limitations of each technique, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages
of each approach. We will also talk in depth about the growing role of AI and neural network techniques in
modern fault diagnosis applications. We will look at how they can improve the accuracy of fault detection,
give us more information about what might go wrong, and help us come up with proactive maintenance plans.
Through this comprehensive review, we aim to provide a valuable resource for engineers, researchers, and
practitioners involved in the design, operation, and maintenance of electrical machines. By understanding the
strengths and limitations of each fault diagnosis technique and the potential of AI-based approaches, we can
make informed decisions about selecting the most appropriate methods for specific applications and achieving
optimal machine reliability and performance.

there is a direct link between how bad the fault is and how badly it affects the motor's performance. This
phenomenon underscores the importance of vigilance in monitoring and addressing eccentricity in induction
motors, as it plays a pivotal role in maintaining operational stability and efficiency. The insights gleaned from
these studies not only shed light on the prevalence of eccentricity but also emphasize its critical role in the
broader landscape of induction motor performance [20].
Eccentricity turns out to be a key factor in how failures show up in three-phase induction motors,
having a big effect on how well they work. The consequences of eccentricity extend beyond mere performance
degradation, as it induces vibration and uneven magnetic forces (UMF), thereby shortening the machine's
lifespan. The mechanical stress that eccentricity puts on different machine parts, especially making bearing
wear worse, makes its bad effects even worse [21].
In the complexities of real-world scenarios [22], a notable observation emerges: both static and
dynamic eccentricities often coexist within induction machines. Even in the nascent stages of machine life,
static eccentricity, an inherent byproduct of production and assembly processes, is prevalent. This results in a
consistent unbalanced magnetic pull (UMP) in a specific direction, laying the groundwork for potential issues
such as accelerated bearing wear or a misaligned rotor shaft. Simultaneously, these natural causes have the
potential to lead to dynamic eccentricity. Failure to fix these issues can lead to a severe machine breakdown,
such as a stator-to-rotor hub failure. MCSA emerges as a crucial diagnostic tool for identifying both static and
dynamic eccentricities. The (1) encapsulates the essence of MCSA, providing a framework for detecting
relevant frequency components [23].
𝑓ℎ = (𝑘 ∗ 𝑍2 ± 𝑛𝑑) ∗ 𝑓𝑟 ± 𝜐 ∗ 𝑓𝑠 (1)
Here, fh denotes the frequency of the shaft's lateral vibration, fr represents the rotor frequency, fs represents the
frequency of stator vibration, and nd denotes the frequency of the bearing's outer race defect. Z2 denotes the
bearing's characteristic frequency; k serves as a variable multiplier dependent on the bearing type and operating
conditions; and υ accounts for any misalignment between the shaft and bearing.
Various models, including the DFT and Modified Prony's Method, are instrumental in discerning
eccentricity faults. While DFT is user-friendly, its drawback lies in being time-consuming and ill-suited for
dynamic models. On the other hand, the Modified Prony's Method shows promise as a practical alternative,
accurately identifying fault characteristic frequencies based on the stator's power and current outcomes [24].
2.2. Squirrel cage rotor faults: broken bars and end rings
Furthermore, delving into the complexities of rotor failures reveals a nuanced dichotomy between cast
and fabricated rotors. Cast rotors, renowned for their enhanced durability [25]–[27], have witnessed an
expanded domain of application, particularly in larger machines reaching power capacities up to 3000 kW,
courtesy of innovations like cast ducted rotors. In contrast, fabricated rotors find their niche in larger or
specialized application machines, delineating a tailored approach based on specific operational requirements.
Mechanics, electromagnetic forces, residual tensions, thermal strains, mechanical strains,
environmental stressors, and dynamic stresses all play a part in how rotor malfunctions happen, especially
when rotor bars and end rings break. Cast rotors, while celebrated for their durability, pose a unique challenge
when afflicted with faults such as cracked or fractured rotor bars, rendering them practically impossible to
repair [28]. Within the diagnostic realm, MCSA emerges as a key methodology for detecting broken rotor bars.
This technique relies on identifying sideband components, denoted as 'fb,' around the fundamental frequency, as
encapsulated in the (2). The lower sideband signifies the presence of broken rotor bars, while the upper sideband
is indicative of speed oscillations. The (3) further underscores the versatility of this approach by
allowing multiple sidebands to occur due to broken bars, each corresponding to different values of 'k' (1, 2, 3,
and so forth).
𝑓𝑏 = (1 ± 2𝑠) 𝑓 (2)
𝑓𝑏 = (1 ± 2𝑘𝑠) 𝑓 (3)
A notable advancement in this field is the integration of a soft sensor [29]–[32] designed to identify
broken rotor bars. This new idea uses a group learning method called dynamic weighted majority (DWM) and
combines drift detection with automatic structure evolution based on the entropy criterion. The membership
degree of the fuzzy classifier is important for figuring out entropy for drift detection. This makes for a
sophisticated and flexible way to find rotor faults [33]. It is important to note that uninsulated rotor cages,
which feature robust contact between the rotor core and bars, may pose challenges in accurately pinpointing
broken bars. To complement these advanced techniques, diagnostic tools such as harmonic analysis at stator
terminal voltages after motor shutdown offer additional insights into the intricacies of rotor health [34]. This
holistic exploration not only reveals the complexities of rotor failures but also underscores the imperative for
sophisticated diagnostic approaches to ensure the reliability and longevity of induction motors.

The diagnostic arsenal deployed to identify these insidious faults is as diverse as the faults themselves.
While online PD test methods are reliable stalwarts, especially for large generators and motors with stator
windings rated at 4 kV and above, a conspicuous gap exists in standardized stator defect detection methods for
low-voltage motors. To bridge this gap, innovative techniques involve the analysis of the machine's axial flux
component through a strategically positioned large coil wound tightly around the shaft, as demonstrated by the
work of [37]. The (4) governs the installation of four symmetrically positioned coils in each of the motor's
quadrants, further refining the pinpointing of fault location.

Insightful research, as conducted by [10], has identified errors causing machine impedance asymmetry
leading to unbalanced phase currents, while [38] attributed such imbalances to negative sequence currents.
A modeling endeavor has meticulously mapped these imbalances, revealing a "bolted" flaw among 648 turns.
Building on these foundations, [39] proposes a diagnostic index based on the ratio of faulty to healthy positive
sequence current. In addition to these methods, techniques like SPC and signal processing [40] help find stator
problems more reliably. This shows how important it is to use a flexible and multifaceted approach to fault
diagnosis in the ever-changing world of induction motor operations. This thorough study not only sheds light
on the complexity of stator faults, but it also stresses how important advanced diagnostic methods are for
making sure that induction motors are reliable and last a long time in a wide range of operating conditions.
Rectified stator current analysis stands as another noteworthy methodology in the arsenal of fault
detection techniques. By scrutinizing the stator current in a rectified manner, this approach provides unique
insights into the motor's health and performance. The rectification process allows for a more granular
examination of the current waveform, facilitating the identification of subtle deviations that may indicate
underlying faults. This method proves to be a valuable tool in the diagnostic toolkit for 3-phase induction
motors [45], [46]. The measurement of the air gap flux's space and time dependencies represents a cutting-edge
approach to fault detection. By analyzing the intricate interplay of spatial and temporal variations in the air gap
flux, this methodology unveils valuable information about the motor's condition. This holistic perspective
allows for the identification of faults that may manifest in complex ways, contributing to a more comprehensive
understanding of motor health [47], [48].
The three-phase induction motor utilizes artificial intelligence to estimate and predict faults in the
stator winding. The motor takes advantage of artificial intelligence's prowess to predict and estimate faults in
the stator winding. Leveraging advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques, this approach offers a
predictive framework for fault estimation that enables proactive maintenance and minimizes downtime [49].
ANN and fuzzy logic methods tackle fault detection for asynchronous motors. Intelligent systems, designed to
learn and adapt, offer a dynamic approach to fault detection in asynchronous motors. By combining ANN and
fuzzy logic, the diagnostic system can handle the complicated and changing nature of asynchronous motor
faults, which makes the system more reliable overall.
A comprehensive framework, encompassing feature extraction, broad learning, and incremental broad
learning, outlines a diagnostic methodology for 3-phase induction motor (TPIM) faults [50]. We train the system
using processed experimental data, highlighting its adaptability through retraining with incremental learning.
The study underscores the effectiveness of incremental broad learning and advocates for future research to focus
on improving feature extraction and developing automatic selection methods for incremental nodes. This
approach's versatility extends beyond TPIM faults, making it applicable to a range of motor diagnostic issues
with the potential for increased accuracy through the augmentation of feature nodes or inputs. Because they
focus on always getting better and being able to adapt, these advanced fault-finding methods are at the top of
the list for making sure that 3-phase induction motors work well and reliably in a wide range of situations.

remains paramount. The incremental broad learning submodule initiates an additional layer of compression if
the diagnostic accuracy exceeds the predefined range of [TP 0.025]. This iterative compression process ensures
that the TPIM fault diagnostic system continually adapts to achieve the delicate balance between model
complexity and diagnostic precision. By using these compression techniques that are based on well-known
mathematical methods, the TPIM fault diagnostic system works in a way that is efficient, easy to understand,
and flexible. The iterative nature of compression, along with the strategic use of NMF and incremental broad
learning, makes the commitment to constant improvement in the diagnostic framework even stronger. This
careful post-processing step is an important part of making sure that the TPIM fault diagnostic system is a
strong, useful, and correct way to figure out what's wrong with a three-phase induction motor.
3.3. Measuring the variations of air gap flux with respect to both space and time
Ensuring the efficient and dependable operation of induction motors hinges on robust condition
monitoring systems, a critical facet addressed in this section. Contemporary diagnostic systems predominantly
rely on external measurements such as current, voltage, vibration, or flux to glean insights into the
motor's health. However, this study advocates for a groundbreaking online fault diagnostic method, as proposed
in [52], [61]–[64], which introduces a paradigm shift by utilizing an array of Hall effect flux sensors to measure
the internal main air gap flux density of induction motors.
The crux of this method lies in its applicability to specialized motors with elevated reliability
requirements. Unlike traditional diagnostic approaches, the proposed method offers a comprehensive solution
for diagnosing induction motor failures by tapping into the internal dynamics of the motor's air gap flux density.
This internal measurement not only provides a unique perspective but also allows for the detection of issues at
an early stage, enabling timely intervention to prevent the escalation of faults.
A distinctive feature of the proposed method is its capability to not only detect faults but also identify
their precise location and gauge their severity [58]. This granular level of diagnostic information is instrumental
in formulating targeted maintenance strategies, enhancing the overall reliability and lifespan of the induction
motors. To substantiate the efficacy of the proposed method, the study undertakes extensive simulations and
develops a prototype online condition monitoring system based on the National Instruments real-time
platform [65]. The results of these simulations and the functioning prototype serve as empirical evidence,
confirming the effectiveness of the proposed method in real-world scenarios. This empirical validation
reinforces the viability of integrating Hall effect flux sensors for online fault diagnosis, establishing it as a
potent tool for ensuring the health and longevity of induction motors.
This section not only highlights the pivotal role of condition monitoring in induction motor operation
but also introduces a pioneering online fault diagnostic method that leverages Hall effect flux sensors. The
method's applicability to specialized motors, early fault detection capabilities, and the ability to pinpoint fault

location and severity underscore its significance in advancing the field of induction motor diagnostics. The
combination of theoretical proposals, simulations, and a functional prototype serves as a robust foundation for
considering the proposed method as a valuable addition to the repertoire of condition monitoring techniques
for induction motors.

induction motors with elevated reliability requirements. This approach's systematic development and validation
contribute significantly to the field of fault diagnosis in induction motors [7]. It not only enhances the
understanding of motor faults but also presents a practical and effective solution for real-world applications,
promising heightened reliability and performance in dynamic settings.
3.4. Estimation of stator winding fault in three-phase induction motors using artificial intelligence
The challenge of detecting faults in induction motors through multiple optimization techniques has
spurred innovative research. In an interesting study [68], researchers came up with a smart way to find short-
circuit faults in the stator winding of a three-phase induction motor by using fuzzy logic. This method is
different because it uses a fuzzy logic controller to carefully look at the stator current and give clues about the
type of motor failure based on a clear set of rules and an inference mechanism [69]–[71]. MATLAB-Simulink
software facilitates the implementation of this intelligent approach, enabling the simulation of both healthy and
short-circuit fault conditions in a three-phase induction motor, as illustrated in Figure 5. The fuzzy logic-based
approach has a unique benefit in that it can find faults based on the inputs that are available. This makes it an
intelligent and flexible way to keep an eye on motor condition and analyze faults.
The significance of this approach goes beyond its technical prowess. By facilitating the detection of
faults at an earlier stage, it contributes to the establishment of a safer working environment in industries. The
proactive nature of fault detection aligns with the broader goal of ensuring the reliability and safety of induction
motors in industrial settings. This study not only introduces an intelligent methodology for fault detection but
also underscores its potential impact on industrial operations, emphasizing the importance of early fault
detection in maintaining a secure and efficient working environment.
To lessen the impact of load changes on defect detection, researchers propose artificial intelligence
(AI) algorithms for detecting interturn short circuit (ITSC) faults in three-phase induction motor stators, with
a focus on the use of ANN and fuzzy logic systems [72]. The ANN algorithm is capable of detecting and
locating ITSC faults, while the fuzzy method can diagnose the severity of ITSC defects. Simulation and
experimental results validate the effectiveness of both techniques under ITSC fault and load change conditions.
In order to achieve reliable stator defect detection even under load changes, a combination of ANN
and Fuzzy Logic System (FLS) is proposed. Specifically, this research [73] utilizes a feedforward multi-layer
perceptron (MLP) Neural Network trained with the back propagation (BP) algorithm to automatically detect
and locate ITSC faults. The suggested approach and neural network architecture are illustrated in Figure 5,
with the NN's output number set at three to correspond with the three phases of the induction motor where the
ITSC fault could potentially occur.
The selection of fault indicators is a crucial step in developing a monitoring and diagnostic system.
Induction motors often detect interturn short-circuit (ITSC) faults using the phase shifts between line current
and phase voltage, which offer a wealth of fault information. Healthy motors exhibit identical phase voltage

and line current magnitudes, offset by 120 electrical degrees. However, faulty operations can result in changes
in magnitudes and phase shifts. We simulated the faulty stator model from Section II under different load
torques (T=3 and 7 N.m.) to investigate the behavior of three-phase shifts under various ITSC faults. The output
of the m-file that was used to simulate the three-phase shifts [74] is shown in Figure 6. It shows how the results
change with the number of short-circuited turns and a 5 N.m. load. The results reveal that load changes have
an impact on the ITSC fault detection technique.
This study [75] presents two AI-based techniques for robust stator failure detection in the presence of
load variations. Artificial neural networks and fuzzy logic are utilized to eliminate the need for an induction
motor model during fault detection, resulting in adaptable and easily deployable systems. The ANN technique
identifies the faulty phase, while the fuzzy logic-based detector determines the severity of the problem. These
smart techniques have various applications, including alerting the workforce of a dangerous condition and
facilitating the repair of a defective stator.

A, phase B, and phase C under a load torque of 5 N.m.
4. MODELLING APPLICATIONS
As the popularity of artificial intelligence-based condition monitoring systems rises, fault detection
systems [10], [31], [65], [73], [76], [77] utilizing support vector machine (SVM), ANN, nave bayes classifier,
ensemble, and K-nearest neighbors (KNN) have become more prevalent. These systems can detect faults and
determine their severity level, but they require extensive data to train and malfunctioning machines are scarce.
Numerical methods can simulate faulty conditions that are difficult to test in the field or lab, providing fault data
for machine learning algorithms. Accurate induction motor (IM) malfunctioning models can minimize harmful
testing, lower costs, and validate new fault detection techniques [78], [79], making them beneficial for training
and testing artificial intelligence-based condition monitoring systems. This section covers recent developments in
IM models, which are categorized into electrical circuits, magnetic circuits, numerical approaches, and hybrid
models, and provides an overview of various fault diagnosis methods [80] as shown in Figure 7.
The coupling circuit model (MCC) represents a wide variety of fault modes, such as stator open circuit,
stator short circuit, broken rotor bar, broken end ring, static eccentricity, dynamic eccentricity, mixed
eccentricity, and defective bearing. In contrast, the d-q model simplifies the representation of faults and reduces
the number of equations required for simulation, but it does not provide specific information about individual
rotor bars or end ring currents. The magnetic circuits (MEC) model provides detailed magnetic modeling with
reluctances and permeances to accurately simulate faults. The mathematical procedures (FEM) approach, on
the other hand, requires a lot of computing power but can accurately model faults in induction machines by
taking into account the nonlinearities of magnetic materials and reproducing the machine's performance.

In conclusion, the MEC-based framework has demonstrated high precision in predicting machine performance
across diverse operating points, load conditions, and even unbalanced excitation and faulty conditions. Its
accuracy and computational efficiency make it an ideal alternative between the standard lumped parameter
models and FEM-based approaches [114]. The MEC technique has also proven effective in modeling a range
of induction motor faults.

parameters. FEM is used to solve the entire geometry of the IM, and the coupling parameters are then imported
into the machine's analytical model [58]. The sparse identification method is effective in obtaining a defective
IM model while minimizing the number of FEM simulations needed, thus reducing computing expenses by
over 99.9%. However, the full FEM analysis is still required for each failure scenario, resulting in extensive
simulation periods and expensive computational costs. TSFEM-based models require lengthy simulation times
for small simulated spans, whereas hybrid models require approximately 25 minutes [104]. Even when the time
to execute one simulation is factored in, the time savings exceed 98%.
To get around these problems, we need to keep studying and creating more advanced diagnostic methods that
use cutting-edge signal analysis, machine learning, and artificial intelligence to make fault finding in three-
phase induction motors more accurate and reliable. Furthermore, integrating comprehensive fault diagnostic
systems that account for various operational scenarios and noise sources can significantly contribute to
improving the effectiveness of fault detection methodologies.
6. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the landscape of fault diagnosis techniques for electrical machines has undergone
significant evolution to ensure the secure and reliable operation of these critical systems. The comprehensive
exploration within this review article has delved into a myriad of diagnostic techniques, ranging from
traditional methods like temperature measurement and infrared recognition to more advanced approaches such
as vibration analysis, MCSA, and artificial intelligence and neural network techniques. The article provides a
comprehensive exploration of numerous fault detection techniques for electrical machines, covering
advancements in traditional methods and cutting-edge approaches. The article talks about advanced techniques
such as AI-based methods, rectified stator current analysis, incremental broad learning (IBL), non-negative
matrix factorization (NMF), talking about how air gap flux changes over time and space, and other machine
learning and signal processing methods. The article underscores the paramount importance of fault detection
methods tailored for different types of faults inherent in electrical machines. The article focused on a variety
of fault categories, such as eccentricity, rotor faults (broken bars and end rings), stator or armature faults, and
bearing faults. Recognizing the dynamic nature of modern electrical machines, the article delved into advanced
fault detection methods. These included cutting-edge technologies like non-negative matrix factorization and
incremental broad learning, as well as methods based on artificial intelligence and measuring how air gap flux
changes over time and space. These advanced techniques' efficiency lies in their ability to provide robust fault
detection solutions. By enabling the timely identification of faults, they play a pivotal role in preventing
unexpected machine downtime and mitigating potential financial losses. However, the article aptly
acknowledges that the field is a dynamic one, and it advocates for continued research and development. This
call to action emphasizes the need for ongoing efforts to enhance fault diagnosis capabilities for electrical
machines, ensuring that diagnostic methodologies stay ahead of evolving challenges in the ever-changing
landscape of electrical engineering.
