Abstract
A simulator system is connected to simulate the connection of a mechanically loaded motor to a motor controller/driver. The simulator system includes a current transformer circuit for monitoring AC output currents provided by the motor controller/driver. A simulation controller calculates, based on the monitored AC output currents, dynamic load voltages that simulate the response that would be generated by a mechanically loaded motor based on the AC output currents provided by the motor controller/driver. A number of power supplies amplify the dynamic loading calculated by the simulation controller to generate a dynamic loading that opposes the AC output currents provided by the motor controller/driver.
