Online seminar to cover electrical testing of critical motors
17 November 2020
ELECTRIC MOTORS are critical assets in many industries and environments. As part of the inaugural IP&E Live on 17 November, Mike Herring from Megger will be looking at electrical testing of critical motors.

Whilst vibration analysis, acoustic analysis, thermography and oil analysis are technologies that are commonly employed as part of a predictive maintenance programme, the motor’s winding is often given little consideration, other than a simple insulation resistance test, and perhaps a phase to phase winding resistance test.
This seminar will investigate the benefits and limitations of these two electrical tests, and discuss the additional tests that will help improve the detection of developing insulation faults.
Herring will also look at dynamic motor testing, which is used to help understand condition of the entire driven system – power supply, motor and the load, simply by analysing the voltage and current of the three phases.
The session will run from 10.30-11.30, and attendees will gain CPD points. Sign up for free here: https://events.streamgo.co.uk/IPE-Live/register?redirect=%2FIPE-Live
