When supply voltage drops below the required level, electrical motors draw higher current to maintain output torque. This excessive current adversely affects motors and associated electrical equipment, leading to increased losses, overheating, and premature equipment failure.
The TM POWER AVR / Servo effectively controls these voltage fluctuations and maintains stable output voltage, ensuring safe and efficient operation of motors and connected systems.
Effects of Higher Current on Electrical Motors
Higher current caused by low voltage conditions affects electrical motors in the following ways:
• Increased Motor Losses
Higher current produces increased electrical losses in motors, resulting in:
- Excessive heating
- Insulation deterioration
- Premature winding failure
- Reduced motor life
This problem is particularly severe in smaller motors up to 7.5 H.P.
