What is an energy-saving motor?

What is an energy-saving motor? Which document or standard defines an energy-saving motor? Does a motor that meets the GB18613-2020 standard and falls into energy efficiency level 3 qualify as an energy-saving motor? Thank you
None of the standards define energy-saving motors, but the specified energy efficiency levels for motors and all electrical equipment represent the requirements for energy savings
Some people say, “High-efficiency energy-saving motors refer to motors that are of the standard type but possess high efficiency.” The efficiency value can reach Level 2 of the GB18613-2002 standard. ”Where does this standard originate from?
You should ask the person who said this which standard specification it is
The energy efficiency level of motors must meet the requirements of standard GB18613-2020. This new standard sets IE3 as the minimum requirement for level 3 energy efficiency, and it explicitly prohibits the production and sale of three-phase asynchronous motors with an energy efficiency below the IE3 threshold (such as YE2 series motors). What we usually call energy-saving motors is actually inaccurate; they should be motors that meet energy efficiency standards. Any motor that falls within the energy efficiency range should be considered an energy-saving motor. Personal opinion, let’s learn together*.
Compliant with GB18613-2020, it meets Energy Efficiency Class 3 standards; it is considered an energy-saving motor, and this represents the lowest standard available.
The one who tied the knot must be the one to untie it. In my opinion, when the motor is not in use, it’s still called a motor – and this is when energy consumption is lowest; P
Sorry, it was a typo; it should be the GB18613-2020 standard: lol
Thank you. That makes sense; I’ve learned it!
