 FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES

In TMEIC, the 3 F’s—Form, Fit, and Function—are fundamental principles followed:

1. Form refers to the physical characteristics of a product, including its shape, size,
dimensions, and overall appearance. It ensures that the design aligns with operational and
aesthetic requirements.

2. Fit ensures that components assemble correctly and integrate seamlessly with existing
systems or enclosures. It focuses on compatibility with mechanical and electrical
interfaces.

3. Function defines the intended operation and performance of a product. It ensures that the
equipment meets technical specifications, efficiency, reliability, and safety standards.
 MV DRIVES

What is an MV Drive?

A Medium Voltage (MV) Drive is a type of variable frequency drive (VFD) designed to
control the speed, torque, and direction of medium-voltage electric motors. These drives are
commonly used in industrial applications such as oil & gas, mining, power generation, and
water treatment plants.

What is an MV Drive Panel?

An MV Drive Panel is an enclosed system that houses the MV drive along with its associated
components. It ensures the safe and efficient operation of the drive while protecting it from
environmental factors, electrical faults, and mechanical damage.
 SECTIONS OF DRIVE PANEL

• Input Section: Vaccum contact, ACL(Active Common-mode Line Reactor), Space heater.
• Transformer : Transformer, Thermostat(varying temperature)
• Converter/Inverter: IGBT(Insulated gate bipolar transistor)
• Control Panel: MCB, MCCB, Terminal block, Relay.
• Auxiliary Panel: This panel is added depending on the customers requirements if extra
components need to be added based on their application.
