Basic System Description
A motor control system will obviously include a motor and inverter, as well as a breaker or
fuses for safety. If you are connecting a motor to the inverter on a test bench just to get started,
that’s all you may need for now. But a system can also have a variety of additional components.
Some can be for noise suppression, while others may enhance the inverter’s braking perfor-
mance. The figure and table below show a system with all the optional components you may
need in your finished application.

NOTE: Some components are required for regulatory agency compliance (see Chapter 5 and
Appendix D).

Input side
AC Reactor
AC Reactor
This is useful in suppressing harmonics induced
on the power supply lines, or when the main
power voltage imbalance exceeds 3% (and
power source capacity is more than 500 kVA), or
to smooth out line fluctuations. It also improves
the power factor.

nearby equipment such as a radio receiver. This
magnetic choke filter helps reduce radiated noise
(can also be used on output).

This filter reduces the conducted noise in the
power supply wiring between the inverter and
the power distribution system. Connect it to the
inverter primary (input side).

DC link choke
The choke suppresses harmonics generated by
the inverter. However, it will not protect the
input diode bridge rectifier.

Braking resistor
Braking components are useful for increasing
the inverter’s control torque for high duty-cycle
(ON-OFF) applications, and improving the
decelerating capability.

Output side
AC reactor
AC reactor
This reactor reduces the vibrations in the motor
caused by the inverter’s switching waveform, by
smoothing the waveform to approximate
commercial power quality. It is also useful to
reduce harmonics when wiring from the inverter
to the motor is more than 10m in length.
