Motor Failure
Note: This is a recorded video presentation and does not qualify as an interactive course nor a live webinar.
Course Highlights

This online engineering CPD video presentation will present information on motor failure, testing and long term storage.

 

This presentation will discuss induction motor failure modes, testing procedures and long-term storage requirements to maintain motor performance without compromising the insulation. Motor failure modes include both electrical and mechanical. The two most common being winding insulation breakdown and bearing wear. Different testing methods will be discussed, including resistance balance, PI and DA, DC hipot, and surge testing, along with their acceptance rules. Long term storage conditions will then be discussed, including but not limited to, temperature and relative humidity.

 

This 1 CPD video presentation is intended primarily for electrical engineers, technicians, and others who are interested in enhancing their knowledge of motor failure.
