Abstract
A system and method for determining the health of a motor drive system is provided, where a motor is coupled to a common motor control and a single or plurality of other motors are coupled to the common power source. Current data corresponding to current provided to the motor is obtained via a sensor connected to an electrical input of the motor, and voltage data corresponding to a voltage provided by the common motor control is also obtained. Based on the current data and the voltage data, a motor current provided to the motor and a motor voltage to current phase shift (or power factor) are determined, and the health of the motor drive system is determined from the motor phase shift (or power factor) and the motor current.
