Concept explainers

Speed control of motor

Speed control by DC motor-speed controller is required to realize variable speed drive. Whenever a motor drives a particular load, it is called drive, and variable speed drive refers to a load requiring variable speed. All this is obtained by a DC motor speed controller.
