Technical Guide No. 4 Guide to Variable Speed Drives
This guide continues ABB’s technical guide series, describing different variable speed drives (VSD) and how they are used in industrial processes. Special attention has been given to electrical VSDs and especially to AC Drives. The guide tries to be as practical as possible. No special knowledge of VSDs is required, although basic technical know-how is required to fully understand the terms and descriptions used.

Energy Efficient Electric Motors Systems
Introduction:
This manual gives a brief description of state-of-the-art technologies used to develop high efficiency motors, including premium efficiency induction motors, permanent magnet motors, and switched reluctance motors.
It also analyses issues that affect motor system efficiency and provides guidelines on how to deal with those issues namely by:
Selection of energy‐efficient motors
Properly sizing of motors;
Using Variable Speed Drives (VSDs), where appropriate. The use of VSDs can
lead to better process control, less wear in the mechanical equipment, less
acoustical noise, and significant energy savings;
Optimisation of the complete system, including, the distribution network,
power quality and efficient transmissions;
Motor Systems Energy Assessments
Taking Measurements
Applying best maintenance practices.
Motor Repair
How to win approval for energy efficiency projects
