Abstract

A converter of a variable frequency drive (VFD) is operated in a ramp-up mode to produce an AC output voltage for accelerating a motor. A loading of the converter is determined concurrent with the ramp-up mode. Transfer of the motor to a bypassed mode is conditioned on whether the determined loading in the ramp-up mode meets a criterion. In some embodiments, conditioning transfer to the bypassed mode comprises foregoing transition to the bypassed mode based on a comparison of the determined loading to an underloading threshold.
