    Abstract: A method (400) of determining equivalent circuit parameters of a three phase induction motor is provided. The method (400) comprises applying (410) a current to a stator winding (362) of an induction motor (360), and varying (420) a voltage applied to the stator winding to regulate the applied current to be a constant current. Application of the current is terminated (430) when the applied voltage has reached a constant voltage. The equivalent circuit parameters are determined (440) from the value of the constant current, the values of the applied voltage, and a time period until the applied voltage attains the constant voltage. The method may provide values for a resistance (210) of the stator winding, a resistance (250) of a rotor winding (364), a magnetizing inductance (230), and a total inductance leakage value (220, 240) for the stator winding and the rotor winding.

    Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for reducing harmonics, for example when using an AC to AC converter to drive a load such as a motor drive. In a first embodiment, a plurality of load driving circuits is provided, each drawing current from a 3-phase AC supply and driving an AC load, wherein each of said load driving circuit includes a 3-phase rectifier, with the rectifiers of the load driving circuits being controlled such that the rectification of the AC supply by the load driving circuits is staggered. In a second embodiment, a load driving circuit comprises an electronic inductor configured to control the DC link voltage and/or current such that the current drawn from the AC supply by the load driving circuit has a stepped profile. The first and second embodiments may be combined.
