Abstract A method of controlling an AC motor which exhibits a constant torque characteristic at a rotational speed N below a base speed Nb and a constant output characteristic at a rotational speed N above the base speed Nb, comprising the steps of finding a base speed N L after limiting the output power of the AC motor, N L being derived from the base speed Nb and the ratio η between maximum output power Pmax 1 and maximum output power Pmax 2 before and after the output power of the AC is limited, respectively, rendering the slip frequency of the AC motor constant until the rotational speed N of the AC motor reaches the base speed N L , varying the slip frequency in inverse proportion to the rotational speed N for N between N L and Nb (N L <N≦Nb), and varying the slip frequency in proportion to the rotational speed N for N above Nb (Nb<N), whereby the output power of the AC motor is rendered constant at a rotational speed N above N L .
