DC drives are free from electromangnetic Induction and controlled electronically by the logic controllers which can be monitored remotely by software .DC drives are robust and less heat generators there by efficiency is more

in DC drives that to shunt machinesre having constant speed characteristics that means almost their speed is independent of load
