  • Abstract
    An analytical approach is described for determining the parameters for an autotransformer-capacitor phase converter that allows matching of the converter to a specific motor for a given load. Equations are developed for the capacitor size and autotransformer turns ratio that will give balanced operation of a three-phase motor. Predicted values are compared with the experimental results.
