Can anyone recommend good reference material ie books and/or websites on insulation,insulation resistance testing, etc.
I have the following questions in particular (this applies to testing motors)
1. What percentage variance is acceptable for winding resistance results for the three phases
2...

Thanks for your comments.
I am actually after troubleshooting charts or rather, failure analysis charts. At the moment, the technicians/fitters are recording the following as 'cause of failure'
"Motor burnt out" - which is not really helpful when it comes to analysing the possible...
rhatcher and jbartos, thanks for your suggestions which i will certainly incorporate.
jbartos, i have already completed a criticality analysis on the plant in terms of impact to production, process, breakdown frequency, etc. im now using this and kW rating of the motor as a starting point in...
Is anyone an expert on failure analysis for motors..need to put in place a system which will work well for analysing failures, ie why they happened, what is the root cause and what can we do to fix it. Examples, flowcharts with a series of questions,etc.
My client is shutting down his plant for a month. What tests, inspections etc would you recommend I conduct for motors? eg which motors (under or over a certain size) to perform insulation resistance and pi tests on, overhauls, winding inspections, etc?
can anyone suggest a scope of work or is...
