The power factor of the drive is greater than that of the motor. Assuming constant voltage and according to the principle of energy conservation, Pin=Pout, the input current of the drive will be lower than the output current.
Example:
Image 1. The power factor (cosθ) of the drive is higher than that of the motor (0.95 > 0.88). Through the calculation using the three-phase real power formula, the input current of the drive is smaller than the input current of the motor (24.74 A < 30.51 A).
