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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

One of the more popular three-phase electrical services supplied to medium-size commercial buildings is the Wye or Star configuration transformer. The name comes from the transformer’s secondary ...

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 ...

What You’ll Learn: The origins of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC motors (PMDC). How the efficiency of electric motors increases as you increase the number of phases. How to optimally control stators as ...
