This paper presents in to Dual Motor Control using double zero sequence injection method in 5- leg voltage source inverter. As industry looking for reducing the semiconductor switching devices, like IGBT/MOSFET’s in dual induction motor control. The main reason behind reducing the switching elements to reduce the weight, cost and size of the components. As conventional inverter require six inverter legs to control two induction motors. In this proposed work five inverter legs used instead of six legs in dual motor control. With this reduced one leg, two switching devices will be reduced and one phase of the inverter leg is common between the two motors, so called five leg inverter (FLI). The main switching methodology used for inverter control is Carrier based Double Zero Sequence Injection Method (DZSM). This Double Zero Sequence Injection Method applied to FLI system is having the one common leg. One of the C Phase modulation signal added to other modulating signals of all phases of other motor respectively. A subsequent each phase degree of freedom is represented by the zero-sequence signal. This paper investigates the independent speed control of dual induction motors at different speeds connected to five leg voltage source inverter system, using MATLAB/SIMULINK Software.
