description This paper presents a comparative study on the application of different neural network structures to early detection of electrical faults in induction motor drives. The diagnosis inference of the stator inter-turn short-circuits and broken rotor bars is based on the analysis of an axial flux of the induction motor. In order to automate the fault detection process, three different structures of neural networks were used: multi-layer perceptron, self-organizing Kohonen network and recursive Hopfield network. Tests were carried out for various levels of stator and rotor failures. In order to assess the sensitivity of the applied neural detectors, the tests were carried out for variable load conditions and for different values of the supply voltage frequency. Experimental results of the elaborated neural detectors are presented and discussed.
