It is a 2100HP induction motor, 12 poll. Inverter IGBT's fire at about 12Hz (electrical frequency) so at about 2.5% slip motor runs at 117rpm (full load HP).
Here is my question: Should the inverters be derated because they are firing at such low frequency (12 Hz)? My boss thinks so and I am not sure because I don't see why and I have not found any reference online indicating so... :?
