Abstract

When the traction motor for urban transit E.M.U is driven with VVVF controlled inverter, the insulation degradation factors on the 200 Class insulation system of VPI process are analyzed with considering dielectric, mechanical properties, thermal stability, chemical resistivity and compatibility. A new test method of complex accelerating degradation is proposed to evaluate the insulation reliability and the long-term life including harmonic loss and transient surge stress due to PWM inverter drive.
