IEC 60034-2-3:2020 Rotating electrical machines – Part 2-3: Specific test methods for determining losses and efficiency of converter-fed AC motors

IEC 60034-2-3:2020 Rotating electrical machines – Part 2-3: Specific test methods for determining losses and efficiency of converter-fed AC motors. This part of IEC 60034 specifies test methods and an interpolation procedure for determining losses and efficiencies of converter-fed motors within the scope of IEC 60034-1 :201 7. The motor is then part of a variable frequency power drive system (PDS) as defined in IEC 61 800-9-2:201 7. Applying the approach of the comparable converter, the motor efficiency determined by use of this document is applicable for comparison of different motor designs only. The document also specifies procedures to determine motor losses at any load point (torque, speed) within the base speed range (constant torque range, constant flux range) based on determination of losses at seven standardized load points. This procedure is applicable to any variable speed AC motor (induction and synchronous) rated according to IEC 60034-1 :201 7 for operation on a variable frequency and variable voltage power supply. 2 Normative references The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content constitutes requirements of this document.
