Improving energy efficiency is the cleanest, most economical, and quickest way to acquire reliable electricity. Motors account for about 46% of overall electricity consumption and 69% of total energy consumption in the industrial sector. Energy consumption is one of the most serious problems for many organizations. The first issue that must be addressed is the inadequate architecture and power consumption. High energy expenditures and the inability to meet the rising demand for power are primarily attributable to poor design and misuse. Many motors operate between 50 and 100 percent of rated load, but the highest efficiency occurs at 75% of rated load and tends to decrease with age. After 50% load, an electric motor’s efficiency automatically begins to decrease.

Four Elements Influencing Motor Performance:

• Inadequate power quality has a direct relationship with motor performance: transients, unbalance, sags, swells, and harmonics can cause severe damage and, in extreme circumstances, failure.
• When a motor produces rotational force to drive a mechanical load at the rated speed of the spinning shaft, the effect of torque on efficiency and overall performance is demonstrated. The electric motor operates at the prescribed frequency and torque speed, ensuring its dependability. Torque measurement provides a clear indication of the condition of an electric motor.
• The operational parameters and predicted performance of the electric motor: Mechanically overloading the motor causes stress on motor components such as the coupling, bearings, and insulation, which reduces the motor’s efficiency and leads to malfunction or premature failure.
• Direct impact on motor performance: The first step in predictive and preventive maintenance is data collecting.

Seventy-five percent of industrial motor failures result in 1-6 days of yearly plant downtime. 90% of motor breakdowns occurred within a month after the earliest warning, and 36% within a single day. To avoid motor failure and operating problems Regular assessments, analyses, inspections, and audits can assist in minimizing electrical motor problems and improving motor reliability and performance.
