L'invention concerne un dispositif de commande de moteur comprenant un inverseur principal de circuit (20), destiné à calculer la perte d'éléments commutateurs (IGBT 7a à 7f et FWD 8a à 8f) dans l'inverseur principal de circuit (20), le dispositif de commande de moteur étant doté de détecteurs de tension de grille (4a à 4f) destinés à détecter les tensions de grille des éléments commutateurs, et d'unités de calcul de perte d'élément (5a à 5f) destinées à stocker des données en tableau qui indiquent la relation entre les tensions de grille et les pertes de fermeture, d'ouverture et de rétablissement des éléments commutateurs et à retrouver les pertes de fermeture, d'ouverture et de rétablissement des éléments commutateurs sur la base des données en tableau et des tensions de grille mesurées par les détecteurs de tension de grille (4a à 4f).
