En la economía global actual, es posible adquirir motores eléctricos fabricados en todo el mundo. Esto nos ofrece muchas opciones para seleccionar un motor eléctrico. La mayoría de los motores eléctricos de 500 HP (373 kW) o menos se ajustarán a una de las dos normas básicas de fabricación; NEMA o IEC. Ambas normas tienen cláusulas específicas que definen los límites de sobretensión a la que se pueden someter las máquinas de inducción en aplicaciones que funcionan con variadores de frecuencia (VFD)/ convertidores. La intención de este artículo es centrarse en las normas IEC para gestionar la sobre tensión en aplicaciones con VFD en lo que respecta a los devanados del motor. Si se necesitan más detalles sobre las aplicaciones NEMA, consulte NEMA MG-1 Parte 31.

The common denominator between electrical windings and lightning rods is geometry.
