Abstract
The disclosure relates to an electric machine and in particular to the monitoring of the electric machine for the presence of a fault, (e.g., in the stator windings). A monitoring unit is provided, wherein the monitoring unit measures the multiphase electrical time signals transmitted from or to the machine and with the aid of a Hilbert filter determines substantially in real time the envelopes and the phase positions of the individual phases of the time signal. The envelopes corresponding to the different phases or the corresponding phase positions are compared with one another by way of forming differences and, in the event that one or more of the differences deviate(s) from a specified expectation value, the presence of a fault is inferred. The approach allows significantly increased operational reliability of the electric machine to be achieved in particular.
