Selection of replacement motors is usually straightforward if the ratings are equivalent. Sometimes, however, a different type of motor is necessary or desirable. For success in these cases, it is ...

This solid-state thyristor (SCR) switch circuit is perhaps the simplest means of reversing a 3 phase motor. “Static” is a catch-all term that essentially means without moving (mechanical) contacts ...

In the real world, it is impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in a 3-phase circuit. In fact, line voltages typically differ by a few volts or more. But a difference that exceeds 1% ...

It’s impossible to balance line-to-line voltages perfectly in three-phase circuits, so they typically differ by a few volts or more. However, if voltage unbalance exceeds 1%, it can markedly decrease ...

This article presents the vector control of a 3-phase PMSM using the ZNEO Z16FMC microcontroller. It discusses the implementation of field oriented control scheme for PMSM, and summarizes the ...

Keep in mind when reading any article about electrical theory or application that it only scratches the surface of the topic. You can dedicate years of your life to understanding electrical theory and ...
