The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) has published a new standard: IEEE Std. 3004.8-2016, “Recommended Practice for Motor Protection in Industrial and Commercial Power Systems.

Each motor branch circuit must be protected against short circuit and ground faults by an overcurrent device sized no greater than the percentages listed in Table 430.52. A branch-circuit ...

The usual way of preventing a small motor from drawing too much current is to install overcurrent protection in the form of a circuit breaker or some other kind of limiter. But installations that ...

Motor control ICs deliver higher efficiency, along with AI/ML functionality for improvements in predictive maintenance.

Texas Instruments announced the expansion of its motor driver portfolio with the addition of 12-V motor driver family that reduces spin-up time to just seconds and makes tuning stepper and brushed DC ...
