Abstract:

This paper proposes a novel inverter topology for canceling the common mode voltage of motor drives, and thus reducing or eliminating the ground leakage current, bearing current, and common mode electromagnetic interference. The proposed topology splits one of the switches on each phase-leg of a conventional inverter into two half-voltage rated switches, and creates two complementary sets of balanced three phase output voltages, whose common mode voltages cancel each other in the driven motor, and is named as “balanced inverter”. The balanced inverter topology does not involve additional passive components, modification of the modulation strategy, or increase of the total device rating. Theoretical analysis, simulation, and testing results are presented to verify this concept.
