Editorial Reviews

Review

"Great, concise and to the point. Best of all is the basic step by step trouble shooting guide at the end. The author doesn't drone on about electrical theory, he assumes you already have a solid understanding. "

Tony (Canada)


"I think the book is fantastic. I have a strong technical background, but little motor control experience. This book presents the fundamentals of VFD in a simple, yet comprehensive manner. It is a quick Read and easy to understand. I recommend this book to budding technicians."

John (US)


"Very informative and useful for electrical personnel in all industries of engineering, furthermore also can be used by engineering students for practical applications."

Will (US)


"'I'm giving a five star rating because it was pretty useful to me at this time. It helped me understand some things I hadn't clearly understood. This is practical guys! I suggest every technician or student of this type should take a look at this without thinking twice. You'll be glad you did!!"

Lots of people are using VFDs to power three phase motors from single phase power. Lots of discussions on the web about people doing this. Not a lot of explanation. This book fills the void. After reading the book I know enough to choose a VFD and how to wire it up. Mission accomplished. Not the best written but that's OK. So long as it does the job.

El material del libro está aceptable, pero me hubiera gustado que el autor enseñará acerca de la instalación de un VFD,como el material de los conductores, la distancia apropiada entre el alto y bajo voltaje en el gabinete de coneccion, locación, etc.

Great book for someone with little knowledge of VFD's. I recently went from being a field electrician to working as a maintenance electrician in a very large facility. I will be getting trained on drive maintenance and I wanted to get some theory and basics down befor I start. I showed the book to our electrician who does all the drive work, he has 20 years experience with drives, and he even thought it was a well written book.

This is a pretty decent book but I'm subtracting a star because the illustrations are fuzzy.
This is a cheap book that is an excellent choice for the apprentice, student, or even electrical technician that wants to learn the basics of VFD's.
I keep it at work so in the event of a failure I can run through the checklist in the troubleshooting section.
