Mechanical imbalances are common mechanical faults in induction motors. Vibration monitoring techniques have been widely used for the diagnosis of mechanical faults in induction motors, but electrical detection methods have been preferred in recent years. For many years, researchers have concentrated on the Motor Current Signature Analysis (MCSA). This paper examines the effect of mechanical imbalances to induction machine electrical parameters. Instantaneous Power Signature Analysis (IPSA) technique used to detect these faults. In the paper, a full analysis of the proposed technique is presented, and experimental results for healthy and faulty motors have been shown and discussed.
