Abstract
A three-phase regenerative drive configured for operation from a single phase alternating current (AC) power source, the three-phase regenerative drive including a three-phase converter having inputs for connection to a single-phase AC source, the three-phase converter having three phase legs, a three-phase inverter for connection to a motor, the three phase inverter configured to provide three phase command signals to the motor, and a DC bus connected between the three-phase converter and the three-phase inverter. A first phase leg of the three-phase converter and a second phase leg of the three-phase converter are employed to direct current from the single-phase AC source to the DC Bus and a third phase leg of the three phase legs of the three-phase converter returns current to a return of the AC source.
