In this paper, two dynamical models of the induction machine (IM) subject to electrical faults in the stator and rotor respectively are validated against experimental data. The considered stator faults are inter-turn short circuit in one of the phases and increased phase winding resistance. The rotor model is validated against an IM with one broken rotor bar, but otherwise healthy. The model parameters are estimated by the Gauss-Newton method and the obtained estimates are compared and discussed. The validation results show, for each of the considered faults, very good agreement between simulations and experiments. This makes the models promising in various applications involving asymmetric IM such as fault tolerant motor drives and motor condition monitoring.
