About This Item
IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023 is an approved draft recommended practice focused on testing and rating electrical submersible pump motors. It addresses how these motors are evaluated for performance, helping engineers and purchasers compare results with greater consistency. For equipment used in demanding pumping applications, this technical document supports more reliable design decisions, clearer procurement requirements, and better alignment between test methods and expected motor rating.
About IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023
This standard is part of the IEEE P1017.4 series and is intended to guide the testing and rating of electrical submersible pump motors. In practical terms, it helps define how motor performance may be measured and interpreted under conditions relevant to submerged pumping service. IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023 is useful when a project needs a common technical basis for comparing results, documenting compliance, and reducing ambiguity around motor capability and rating practices.
Where is IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023 used?
IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023 is mainly relevant where electrical submersible pump motors are selected, tested, or specified for pumping systems. That can include equipment used in industrial fluid handling, well and lift applications, and other installations where motor performance under submerged or closely integrated pump conditions matters. It is especially useful during engineering review, factory testing, acceptance checks, and specification writing for motor-driven pumping packages.
Importance in practice
In practice, this standard helps reduce uncertainty in how electrical submersible pump motors are rated and evaluated. Consistent test and rating guidance supports more dependable performance comparisons, lowers the risk of misapplied equipment, and improves communication between manufacturers, engineers, and buyers. IEEE P1017.4/D3, Apr 2023 can also assist with quality control and procurement by making technical expectations clearer before equipment is installed or placed into service.
