Variable Frequency Drives: Installation & Troubleshooting (Practical Guides for the Industrial Technician)

Good book

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.

Extremely pleased. Overnight shipping!

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.

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.

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.

I enjoyed the book. Well thought out and laid out. The trouble shooting section I found to be very useful.
