  • Abstract
    This paper outlines experience gained over the past six years in the use of adjustable-frequency power inverters for industrial applications. Expected performance factors such as frequency and voltage accuracy, reliability, and flexibility are discussed. The characteristics important for proper performance are noted and comparisons with rotating type drives are made in the areas of installation, performance, and maintenance. In conclusion, future trends for the adjustable-frequency inverter are discussed.
