Good thinking, had considered that but only problem with using dc power to pole check it is, if the winding is blew out on two phases then I won't be able to check it. I think experience is the way forward to be able to do it efficiently.
Thanks for the inputs guys its been most helpful, I can gauge the poles if theres a name plate easy enough its on the regular occurance that the nameplate has been broken off or perhaps the motor has been wound after manufacture to a different spec and the original name plate is still on the...
No just staying with the 3 phase motors for now as they are the most common ones we receive in and work on. I can do most of the work on the motors at present but it's looking into the stator and checking to see how many poles the motor has is where it ends. The guy training myself has said that...
Hi just wanting to find information on electric motors and how to tell how many poles a motor has. Im being trained on winding motors but at present cant get my head around how to tell how many poles inside a motor. Anyone any interactive showings of how to tell? I know its each change in the...
thanks very much pete thats fantastic, we work on smaller motors usually just 415V and 230V but this will give me a better understanding off it all and I can go from there.
Thanks Alan
Hi Im an apprentice engineer needing some advice on books I can get to help me to re-wind motors. I am being trained to do it but its not an everyday thing at the minute as its not a large company and I can be shifted out to help in the outside electrical work, so wanting to try and get as much...
