Abstract :
This paper proposes a procedure to estimate key motor parameters for ac motors that lack manufacturerpsilas data. Often users lack important motor data needed to provide optimal motor performance and protection. The manufacturer may never have supplied this information, or the documentation may have been lost. This method provides motor users with a way to determine the lost or missing information.
