First of all I want to thank everyone who has replied to my threads. I have learned more about induction motors on this site than I have anywhere else.
I'm using the attached motor speed vs torque curve as a reference. I have reports of this motor spiking on a trend up to 1000A. I found this to be a very high value. Looking at the attached curve I see that the 1000 A corrolates to a position that is to the left of the torque breakdown point. After the motor has been up to speed and running, wouldn't any point to the left of the breakdown point be considered a stalled motor? As the motor is running and loaded up, it moves to the left along the torque curve until it gets to the peak of the torque curve which beyond this peak is a motor stall. Is this correct. So tracing this current value of 1000A it would appear that the motor was in a stalled condition.
The motor overloads did trip this motor. If this motor stayed in this stalled condition would the current value move all the way back to a S=1 thus drawing LRC in a stalled condition?
