MOTORS AND STARTERS (EDITION 2)

Here a step-by-step illustration is shown of the various test procedures to be carried out when tracing a fault in a three-phase motor. The motor's electrical components are shown separated and tested individually for continuity as well as for between-phase faults. For single phase motors a capacitor start motor is shown being cleaned, tested and serviced and a commutator motor serviced. The working of Direct On Line, Star/Delta and Auto-transformer starters are described and some recommended maintenance steps for these starters.
