Abstract :
The paper details a platform for testing electric motors over the Internet, which enables users to test multiple motors remotely under the specific loading conditions of the real-world application for which the motor is required. The system is divided into three major modules: the Motor Test Platform, the Target Software Application and the Server Software Application. The proof-of-concept prototype was developed and examined against benchmark tests to determine its capabilities as a remote access emulation and evaluation tool.
