can u please tell me how VFD(variable frequency) drive is
used as a energy saver....?

Answer Posted / sivaraman

ofcourse by vfd v can control speed. but if v use t 4 enrgy
consumption y dont v go for low speed(i.e low rated)motors
instead using a high rated one n to reduce its speed by
vfd. so its used onli to speed control not in the point of
view of energy saver. for that we can use capacitor banks
