Bearing currents have been identified as a major cause of electrical machine failure when operating from a solid-state pulse-width modulated inverter. This is because at frequencies corresponding to the switching time of the inverter semiconductors, charges accumulating in the parasitic capacitances between the stator and rotor create voltages acro...

... v CM can be further reduced to ±E/3 [4], termed SVPWM7 common-mode voltage reduction (SVPWM7-CMVR). As an alternative, the implementation of active zero SVPWM (AZSVPWM) [7] in MSC with SVPWM7 in GSC has been discussed in [8] to also obtain a v CM equal to ±E/3. However, with AZSVPWM, the harmonic distortion is greatly increased. ...
