Complex motion control: cranes, elevators, precision machinery → ATV900 series (high‑end, multi‑axis synchronization)

2. Determine Load Category

Continuous load (AC‑1): heaters, lighting → 1:1 power selection

Motor load (AC‑3): squirrel‑cage motor DOL → motor current ≤ drive rated current

Shock load (AC‑4): crushers, presses → select HD series for 150% โอเวอร์โหลด

3. Calculate Current & Rating
