A method of determining an angular movement of an induction motor involving steps of using the hardware of the induction motor as a low-power alternator producing alternating-current output with a frequency and voltage proportional to the rpm of the induction motor during the periods of planned or accidental interruption of electric power supply to the motor by utilizing the property of the induction motor acting as a low-power alternator due to the residual magnetism in the ferromagnetic circuit of the motor's squirrel-cage rotor. The method includes providing a set of electromagnetically operated changeover switches so that the low-power signal from the induction motor does not sink in the low impedance of the mains power. The method allows to detect the angular movement of the induction motor coming to a standstill after power outage, or motor rotation due to an external mechanical force exerted on the rotor, thus employing the induction motor, when it is not supplied with electrical power, as a tachogenerator to sense a movement of the machine, such as a machine tool for example, to which it is mechanically linked.
