The paper deals with the conception of the test bed for the permanent magnet brushless DC motor (PM BLDC) with parameter verification. The tested motor is destined for installation in the wheel body. The test bed HW and SW equipment is described in the paper. This equipment enables the automated measuring of load-rise, temperature-rise, and retardation tests. The test's aim is to obtain attested specifications for a vehicle dimensioning methodology design based on the knowledge of its dynamic behaviour and the track grading, and eventually of its energy consumption, action radius, etc.

Keywords: electromobility, BLDC (brushless direct current), NdFeB, PM (permanent magnet), PWM (pulse width modulation) converter.
