Hi Dear,

You must have following info during selection of AC drive;

1) Motor rated power.

2) Length of cable from drive to motor.

3) Environment temperature.

4) Type of control (simple V/HZ, torque control, field oriented control)

5) Type of operation (single quadrant or 4 quadrant)

5) And "under your budgetary price"

Wiki has a basic overview. It should help you with the questions to ask.
