All excellent points. R1/X1 are stator R2/X2 are rotor. Thanks for the replies gentlemen.
And yes, now that drives are so intelligent, I feel like younger engineers like myself have become ignorant to how things work because we can get them working without really understanding them. Not sure...
Please see the inserted image of a small 3-phase motor name plate:
I do not understand what the R1, R2, X1, X2, XM terms mean. It seems like the R1, R2 are the number of ohms I should see if I measure from phase lead to phase lead (while disconnected from power source, of course).
However...
