It is a system for controlling the rotational speed of an alternating current

(AC) motor by controlling the supply frequency supplied to the motor. A
variable frequency drive is a special case of a variable speed drive.

- Insert the corresponding circuit circuit:
1. Turn on the thermomagnetic circuit breakers (three-phase and single-

phase).
2. Select the working frequency with the potentiometer (in this case at
maximum frequency).
3. Press the start button to start the engine.
4. When a turn reversal is made, the button is pressed and the motor
automatically stops for a moment and rotates the direction of movement.
The acceleration start time is 10 seconds at a certain frequency of 60 Hz,
with the potentiometer we can regulate the frequency.
As a curious fact we can add that in Bolivia it works with a frequency of 50
Hz.
Possible applications for frequency inverter:

- Final conclusion of the entire laboratory
We can define that whatever the electronic starter (soft starter or frequency
variator), both have one thing in common, they can manage to control the
electric current injected into the motors and thus generate various parameters
of behavior and behavior for the different applications of industrial electrical
machines.
