This paper develops an electrical analogue for a gearbox suitable for use in the time‐domain modelling of many electromechanical systems, with tensor methods being used to define the changing conditions in the gearbox brought about by backlash. Unlike most existing models it is compatible with the time‐varying and discontinuous models often used to describe the electrical items of a typical system, and it allows for the effects of these items of mechanical non‐linearities and discontinuities such as friction and backlash.
