Motor Drive Efficiency Analysis/Evidence
Method evidence record

Motor Drive Efficiency Analysis

Motor drive efficiency analysis quantifies energy losses in electrical motors and variable frequency drive (VFD) systems, which together comprise the largest industrial electrical load. Methods assess copper losses in windings, core (iron) losses, mechanical losses, and converter losses to identify efficiency improvements and estimate annual energy and cost savings.
