Electric Car Motor: Duty Rating

by Patrick

Will a 3 phase electric motor from an older air compressor work for an electric car conversion?


Hi, Patrick -
There's a reason why people choose "intermittent duty" over "continuous duty" rated electric motors for their electric car conversions.


The industrial motors tend to be heavier and bigger for the power you get.



Read this article on why people choose OEM electric car motors for their conversions instead of other types of electric motors that would seem to be suitable because of their weight or application.

Regards,
Lynne
