A comparison of induction motor models for bus transfer studies

A study was undertaken to determine if improved accuracy can be obtained using different induction motor models for bus transfer simulations where the loads have low inertias. Bus transfer simulations are presented using five different models. Based on a comparison of these simulations, separate motor models for the disconnect period, the period immediately after reenergization, and the longer time period during which bus voltage and motor speeds are restored are recommended.>
