    Concentric to Lap Winding Conversion

    Several examples from a publication on how to convert a three-phase concentric winding to a double-layer lap winding are found online. The displayed table shows the value of the conversion factor in the case of a 54-slot, 2-pole, mixed winding ( 30 coils in total) with pitches of 1-20, 22, 24...

    Permissible flux density of transformer core

    I would need advice from esteemed experts on this forum. It concerns the custom design of a dry, low-voltage power transformer with an approximate power rating of 1 to 3 kVA. The issue at hand is that we have several sizes of new "EI" transformer cores of unknown quality and manufacturer, in...

    32-pole motor winding with 96 slots

    Does anyone else see something very strange in this unusual diagram? It is a three-phase, double-layer 32-pole motor winding with 96 slots. Is this connection correct? If so, are there any benefits?

    Consequences of increasing the length of the iron core in electric motor

    Hypothetical, theoretical question about electric motors. Let's say we have a fully functional three-phase squirrel-cage LV motor. Let's imagine we made another one with exactly the same geometry of stator and rotor lamination, exactly the same winding (turns/coil, wire size, pitch, etc...). The...

    Two-speed stator with wound rotor

    It sounds strange, but several times this type of crane motor arrived in our workshop (mostly just the stator). The stator is a two-speed motor 8 and 4 poles, constant HP connection but the rotor has an 8-pole winding. Costumer claims that the motor runs at low speed with rotor resistances...

    Micromotor repair

    We need to fix that. The stator of a very old micromotor for dental laboratories was defective. Fortunately, only one of the 3 terminals lost contact. That has been fixed and the motor is now working well. As can be seen, it is a three-phase motor powered via a VFD for speed control up to...

    Only the first coil of each winding group is blackened

    Only the first coil of each group is blackened. What could be a reason? Is it about corona discharge? What is the remedy? What to do during rewinding to avoid such an outcome? The motor is TECO; 6,6 kV; 550 kW; six pole; DOL starting. Thanks in advance.

    Unknown motor connection

    I have a theoretical question. If the three-phase motor winding is connected this way, what kind of connection is it? 1Wye or 1Delta; 2Wye or 2Delta; 3Wye or 3Delta or....?

    IEC labeling of dual voltage motors with 9 and 12 leads

    This is about the IEC labeling and wiring of dual voltage motors with 9 and 12 leads. Where to find valid IEC regulation? There are various ways in practice. See this WEG nameplate. Is it already outdated or there is something other? 9 leads, NEMA - IEC: 12 leads- IEC:

    Winding diagram 6/4 pole, 54 slots

    I stucked with particular version of two speed winding diagram 6/4 pole, 1D/2Y; 54 slots with odd grouping 1,2,5,4,3,2,1,1,5,3 (twice), pitch 1-7. Is there any help?

    Single-Phase motor and electricity abroad

    I was reading somewhere about a specific issue relating to the application of single-phase motors in certain electricity distribution networks. It is about the single-phase, capacitor-run motor which is designed for 230 V, 60 Hz. Connection to phase voltage ( L1 and N ie. phase and neutral)...

    End Winding Insulation

    Lately, there is lot of motors with no any phase to phase end windings insulation at some new motors and consequently at motors coming out from rewind shops. This is related to single-phase as well as to three-phase motors. Suddenly, there is no need for end winding insulation? Why? Whether...

    Test motors under load

    In our rewind shop we want to test repaired motors (up to 60 HP) under load. It seems that such dynamo-meters from various manufacturers are extremely expensive and we would try to do something ourselves using brakes or generator or motor etc... Is there any idea how to do it? Probably...

    Conversion from 6 to 2 pole

    This is something weird that has never been done in our workshop. Three phase, 72 slots, 6 pole, 60 HP, motor winding should be converted to 2 pole. What would be an outcome (HP)? What issue could be expected? Whether someone has already experienced such a conversion? Thanks in advance.

    Zero sequence winding component

    What is and how to calculate a zero sequence winding component for 3ph induction motor? Where to find more on this topic? Thanks in advance.

    Single layer winding 96 slots, 24 pole

    I'm preparing to record an unusual three phase stator winding. It's about a 24 pole, 96 slots but single-layer (48 coils). Is such a connection already known to someone?

    Constant torque or power?

    If the three phase, 4/2 pole (one winding) motor drives the crane, what could be motor connection: constant torque or constant power?
