Most fault detection techniques inherit the three-phase approach by defining fault indices in a per-phase basis. A recent approach suggests an alternative fault detection mechanism based on vector space decomposition (VSD) variables, but the study is limitedto open-phase faults (OPFs) for a six-phase drive that is regulated under field-oriented control. It is known, however, that 1) the open-switch faults (OSFs) in the converter are more likely than the OPF in the machine and 2) the drive performance in the event of an open-circuit fault is more critical when model predictive control (MPC) is used. This work extends the study of the VSD fault detectionmethod to multiphase machines with different number of phases (five), control strategy (MPC), and type of faults (OPF and OSF). Although experimental results show that MPC misbehaves after the fault occurrence, the fast detection provided by theVSD approach allows a satisfactory transition to postfault mode of operation.
