Phase Terminal for Electric Motors for Phase Current Measurement

Abstract

An electric drive may include an electric motor phase terminal for phase current measurement. The electric drive may include an inverter, an electric machine having a plurality of phase current branches, the electric machine and the inverter being arranged together in a housing, and the one magnetic field sensor without a magnetic core for measuring a current of at least one of said plurality of phase current branches. At least one phase current branch of the plurality of phase current branches may include a slot bar which is arranged at least partially in a slot of the electric machine and which forms a phase terminal outside the slot, and the phase terminal may have a curvature in the region of which the at least one magnetic field sensor without a magnetic core is arranged.
