Click For Summary
Back EMF in motors is often discussed in terms of phase-to-phase voltage relationships, where the back EMF of each phase is defined relative to another phase. For instance, back EMF of phase A is measured with respect to phase B, while phase B's back EMF is measured against phase C, and so on. This concept is particularly relevant in field-oriented control systems. Understanding the reversible nature of transformers can provide insights into how most motors can also function as generators, generating back EMF or RPM-induced voltage. A deeper inquiry into these concepts can enhance comprehension of motor dynamics.

TL;DR
Understanding of Back emf of PMSM motor
When the back emf of the motor is referred does it always refer to phase to phase voltage. For example
Back emf of A is A phase with respect to B phase? (A+, B-)
Back emf of B is B phase with respect to C phase? (B+, C-)
Back emf of C is C phase with respect to A phase? (C+, A-)

It's this is concerning a field-oriented control .I hope this helps. Good luck to you.

I am trying to understand how transferring electric from the powerplant to my house is more effective using high voltage. The suggested explanation that the current is equal to the power supply divided by the voltage, and hence higher voltage leads to lower current and as a result to a lower power loss on the conductives is very confusing me. I know that the current is determined by the voltage and the resistance, and not by a power capability - which defines a limit to the allowable...
