Electrical Motor Controls

Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems continues the long tradition of technical content presented in a user-friendly format. A comprehensive overview of the control industry is augmented with practical applications used in the field. With new, large detailed illustrations, contemporary photographs, and informative factoids, the premier motor control text remains the first choice of electrical training programs.

Electric Motor Control: DC, AC, and BLDC Motors introduces practical drive techniques of electric motors to enable stable and efficient control of many application systems, also covering basic principles of high-performance motor control techniques, driving methods, control theories and power converters. Electric motor drive systems play a critical role in home appliances, motor vehicles, robotics, aerospace and transportation, heating ventilating and cooling equipment’s, robotics, industrial machinery and other commercial applications. The book provides engineers with drive techniques that will help them develop motor drive system for their applications. Includes practical solutions and control techniques for industrial motor drive applications currently in use Contains MATLAB/Simulink simulation files Enables engineers to understand the applications and advantages of electric motor drive systems

"This book will introduce the reader to a broad range of motor types and control systems. It provides an overview of electric motor operation, selection, installation, control and maintenance. The text covers Electrical Code references applicable to the installation of new control systems and motors, as well as information on maintenance and troubleshooting techniques. It includes coverage of how motors operate in conjunction with their associated control circuitry. Both older and newer motor technologies are examined. Topics covered range from motor types and controls to installing and maintaining conventional controllers, electronic motor drives and programmable logic controllers." -- Publisher's description.

Work safely and efficiently on motors and controls with Ugly’s Electric Motors and Controls, 2020 Edition. Updated to reflect the 2020 National Electrical Code (NEC), this pocket guide is a quick, on-the-job reference specifically designed to provide the most commonly required information on the design, installation, application, and maintenance of motors and controls in an easy-to-read, easy-to-access format. An ideal tool for electricians, contractors, designers, engineers, instructors and students, this essential pocket guide uses new full-color diagrams, calculations, and quick explanations to ensure jobs are completed safely and correctly and in accordance to industry standards.

This book is designed for the electrical professional who needs to know motor control from the practical viewpoint. It is designed to introduce basic controls then build to the more complex controls for various motors and various applications. It is designed for a troubleshooter who needs to know not only modern controls but older controls that are still in use. The HOW and WHY controls are designed to perform the desired operations are important concepts to be understood. Along with motor controls of all types, motors are analyzed to provide the reader with the proper application for a particular need. Matching system needs with motor characteristics and capabilities is easier with foundational knowledge of motor theory. Use of the National Electrical Code is used to acquaint readers with how to install and maintain motor systems.

Your students will be able to install, troubleshoot, and test electrical motors like the pros! UNDERSTANDING MOTOR CONTROLS, 2ND Edition uses a real-world systems approach to learning motor control devices. Starting with basic control circuits and components, this book covers all must-know applications and procedures to ensure reader success in the more complex topics. From development and installation to testing and troubleshooting, UNDERSTANDING MOTOR CONTROLS, 2ND Edition prepares future industrial electricians with a solid foundation in basic control circuits, sensing devices, solid-state controls, variable speed drives, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and more.
