Abstract: A rotating machine drive system includes a power supply, an electric motor, a rotating machine, a belt drive transmission unit, an electrical information detection sensor, and a diagnostic unit. The electrical information detection sensor detects a current or a voltage. The diagnostic unit calculates estimated rotational speed information of the rotating machine based on the current or the voltage, calculates a reference rotational frequency from a rotational speed of the electric motor and a ratio between a diameter of the electric motor side pulley and a diameter of the rotating machine side pulley. The diagnostic unit uses a difference or a ratio between the estimated rotational speed information and the reference rotational frequency to determine whether or not there is the transmission abnormality.
