Although an increasing interest and use of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) can be observed during the last decade, the standard 3-phase Induction Motor (IM) is still the most widely used ...

Having both 3-phase and single-phase loads can be challenging when trying to balance the voltages at a facility. It’s possible that during a facilities operation, one phase can be lightly loaded ...

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 ...

Single-phase and 3-phase AC squirrel cage induction motors need some type of control circuit to initiate a start or stop function. The two types of ladder control circuits commonly used are the 2-wire ...

Grab a seat, class, it is time for a lecture from Dr. Paul Turnbull on the fundamentals of EV motor design and Kia’s groundbreaking solution to switching between so-called Wye and Delta configurations ...
