Abstract: A vector control method for electric motors, characterized in that it comprises the steps of: supplying a reference vector (VoutMAX); supplying a required vector (Vf), preferably represented by means of a real vector component (Vq) and an imaginary vector component (Vd); comparing the magnitude (VMAX) of said reference vector (VoutMAX) with the magnitude of said required vector (Vf), generating at least one result (V6, index_clip) that expresses the relationship existing between said magnitudes; generating a reduction value (J) as a function of the result (V6, index_clip); and generating a clipped value (VfCLIP) by limiting the magnitude of the required vector (Vf) as a function of the reduction value (J) and maintaining the phase of the clipped value (VfCLIP) unaltered with respect to the phase of the required vector.
