There are several reasons to use a three-phase inverter to run a single-phase induction motor, including isolation from variable power grids, reduction of peak currents and elimination of the ...

He uses a L6234 Three Phase Motor Driver, but points out that there are other ways to interface the BLDC motor with the Arduino. A warning is warranted – this is not for the faint of heart.

To maintain peak energy efficiency and thwart premature failure of 3-phase motors, it makes sense to install adequate protective devices and periodically check for voltage unbalance at the motor ...

As mentioned earlier, a voltage unbalance exceeding more than 2 percent in three-phase systems can cause excessive current unbalance among the windings. This above calculated voltage unbalance of 2.4 ...
