The Technique to improve the power quality of Brushless DC motor by power factor correction play an important role in the energy saving during Energy Conversion. In BLDC motor the ac-dc conversion of electric power is usually required; nevertheless, it causes poor power factor and many current harmonics in the input ac mains. In this Paper DC-DC Buck converter used as a single-stage power factor correction (PFC) converter for a brushless dc motor fed through a diode bridge rectifier (DBR) from a single-phase AC mains. The DC-DC converter shows conformity to international power quality standards with improved performance of BLDC Motor drive, such as reduction of AC main current harmonics, near unity power factor and reduction of speed and torque ripples. To operate the BLDC Motor a Three-phase voltage source inverter is used as an electronic commutator.
