- They are having flexible control characteristics. The study state and dynamic characteristics of electrical drives can be shaped to satisfy load requirements.
- Drives can be provided with automatic fault detection systems. PLCs and computers can be employed to automatically control the drive operations in a desired sequence.
- Drives are available in wide range of speed, power and torque.
- Control gear required for speed control, starting and braking is usually simple and easy to operate.
- It can operate in all the four quadrants of speed - torque plane. Electric braking gives smooth deceleration and increases life of the equipment compared to other forms of braking.
