Q&A Issue in Cable Sizing and control cable selection

200 HP is 147.1 kW. At 480 V, it takes 306 A to transfer that much power. You didn't say, but your 480 V power feed is probably three-phase, and the motor is three-phase too. I don't remember ho...

Q&A Which transistor type to use for charge shuttle, as part of an active charging circuit?

I've figure probably not an IGBT since their gate requires too much current, while a BJT would be too wasteful as well, so would that mean a MOSFET or JFET is the best choice? First, let's cla...

Q&A Which transistor type to use for charge shuttle, as part of an active charging circuit?

You need something with very low on-state voltage drop. That effectively means some type of FET. Those look resistive when on, as opposed to a voltage source like a BJT does. You need to look ca...
