Abstract

A driving apparatus of a three-phase induction motor includes: a three-phase power supply unit for supplying three-phase power; a rectifier for rectifying the three phase voltage supplied from the three phase power supply unit; a voltage reducing unit for reducing a DC voltage generated from the rectifier and outputting a stabilized DC voltage; and an inverter unit for varying the DC voltage outputted from the voltage reducing unit to a three-phase AC voltage and driving a three-phase induction motor. A power-factor degradation generated during supplying a DC voltage to the inverter to drive the three-phase induction motor is prevented, a harmonic wave is removed, and because a high-priced inverter component is not necessary, its relevant expense is reduced.
