Abstract :
The need for not only thinking about what additional features are required when specifying an AC motor for use on an adjustable-speed drive (ASD), but also for considering the possibility of relaxing some of the requirements historically specified is discussed. How cost is added and benefits are sacrificed if some of these features are specified when not necessary is examined.<>
