Abstract
Method of automated measurement of the ohmic rotor resistance (Rr) of an asynchronous machine (1) controlled via an inverter (8) while being acted upon by a non-rotating field, the method involving a. measuring the ohmic stator resistance (Rs), the leakage inductances (Lσs, Lσr) and the main inductance (Lm) of the asynchronous machine, b. leading a testing signal (Usa) being formed by a predetermined direct signal with a superimposed alternating signal corresponding approximately to the nominal slip frequency (fs) of the asynchronous machine (1), c. measuring the amplitude and the phase (φ) of the phase signal (Isa) resulting from the testing signal, and d. calculating the ohmic rotor resistance (Rr) from the measured values according to a) and c).
