The primary source of voltage sags is a short circuit fault in the power system. Three-phase fault can result in a more severe effect on the equipment. The voltage sags have affected significantly on performance degradation of the induction motor. The motor behaviors can be investigated in terms of rotation speed, torque, peak current, and recovery time during and after voltage sags. This study is to investigate induction motor behavior under voltage sags using the alternative transient program (ATP) draw software in simulation models. Distinct rated capacity, mechanical inertia, and loads torque (constant, linear, and variable) of the motor were used to investigate the motor’s behavior during and after sag end. Voltage sags resulted from three-phase fault at the certain locations in industrial power systems. The motor rotation speed decreases in slightly distinct during voltage sag but recovery times required to motors are longer for the large capacity motors. The large motors create the larger inrush current can reach more than five times its nominal. The motors with constant load toque subjected to voltage sag lead loss control in speed.
