Common mode path capacitance
The motor side inverter generates differential mode disturbances between the phases on
motor and line side. Common mode currents are driven over the motor and cable
capacitances to Earth and back over the line side to the input rectifier and the DC link.
Distribution of disturbances

Differential mode
Common mode
The grid can be safely protected against disturbances of all frequencies with a line inductor
or a hamonic filter and in addition an EMI-Filter.

Generates nearly pure sinusoidal differential mode motor voltages and motor
currents, because fundamental frequency<filter resonance frequency<switching

Summary
Differential mode filters reduce…
• dv/dt and motor peak voltages (less motor insulation stress)
• inverter output current peaks (less inverter stress)
• Low cost: Motor choke, High quality: sine filter SFB
Common Mode filters reduce…
• dv/dt and peak shaft voltages (less motor insulation stress,
elimination of bearing currents)
• conducted and radiated EMI, maybe shielded cabels are not
necessary
• High quality: allpole sine filter SFA
