  • Why is motor diagnosis troubleshooting important to your work?
  • How does your organization manage motor problems these days?
  • What tools and measurements can be used to isolate possible causes of failure?
  • How do you apply the test tool and use measurements to isolate fault conditions?
  • What is nominal supply voltage, current and frequency?
  • What are harmonics, transients, voltage and current unbalance?
  • What is DC Bus?
  • What are output reflections?
  • What is single phasing?
  • What are bearing failures?
  • What is misalignment?
  • What is imbalance?
  • What is insulation breakdown?
