In this paper, a method based on the application of the fuzzy logic technique to diagnose the fault of broken rotor bars in an induction machine has been proposed. Through the decomposition into a wavelet packet, we can detect, identify and prognosis failures in all operating conditions of the machine. The energy calculations for each level of decomposition are richer with the necessary information for fault diagnosis. The latter can be used as input to an intelligent diagnostic system based on fuzzy logic for the detection and classification of the broken bars faults. The advantage of this method is the use of a single current sensor. Indeed, we can detect online, the fault and the number of broken bars with a variable load. The obtained results are very satisfactory. Some results were verified by simulations under MATLAB/Simulink and validated experimentally via dSPACE 1104 card.
