2. Motor controller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_controller

   A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. [1] A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor, selecting forward or reverse rotation, selecting and regulating the speed, regulating or limiting the torque, and protecting against overloads and electrical ...

3. Variable-frequency drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-frequency_drive

   Small variable-frequency drive Chassis of above VFD (cover removed). A variable-frequency drive (VFD, or adjustable-frequency drive, adjustable-speed drive, variable-speed drive, AC drive, micro drive, inverter drive, variable voltage variable frequency drive, or drive) is a type of AC motor drive (system incorporating a motor) that controls speed and torque by varying the frequency of the ...

4. Utilization categories - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utilization_categories

   The utilization categories category for low-voltage switchgear defines the characteristic operating conditions for switchgear such as contactors, circuit-breakers, circuit-breaker-fuse units, contactor relays, etc. These devices are dimensioned for different electrical loads and for different operating conditions.

5. H-bridge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-bridge

   An H-bridge is an electronic circuit that switches the polarity of a voltage applied to a load. These circuits are often used in robotics and other applications to allow DC motors to run forwards or backwards. [1]

6. AC motor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_motor

   An AC motor is an electric motor driven by an alternating current (AC). The AC motor commonly consists of two basic parts, an outside stator having coils supplied with alternating current to produce a rotating magnetic field , and an inside rotor attached to the output shaft producing a second rotating magnetic field.

7. Glossary of electrical and electronics engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_electrical_and...

   A circuit that switches on and off at a high rate, used either for power conversion or to convert a DC signal to a more easily processed AC signal. circle diagram A representation of the voltage and current characteristics of an electrical machine; the plot traces out a circle or part of a circle. circuit breaker panel

8. Circuit breaker - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circuit_breaker

   A small circuit breaker typically has a manual control lever to switch the circuit off or reset a tripped breaker, while a larger unit may use a solenoid to trip the mechanism, and an electric motor to restore energy to springs (which rapidly separate contacts when the breaker is tripped).

9. Frequency changer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_changer

   A variable-frequency drive (VFD) is a type of frequency changer used for speed control of AC motors such as used for pumps and fans. The speed of a synchronous or induction AC motor is dependent on the frequency of the AC power supply, so changing frequency allows the motor speed to be changed. This allows fan or pump output to be varied to ...
