OVERVIEW:
This course provides an in-depth look at the technical theory and concepts of electrical insulation testing in motors. Each test method will be discussed in the context of motors tested while in a static state (powered down/off). Students are taught to analyze results corresponding to specific insulation fault modes. The operation of various Baker Static Motor Analyzers (Baker DX and Baker AWA-IV) and respective software programs are covered in detail.
Discussions include methods to reduce costly downtime, troubleshooting, and motor quality control through use of static motor testing. Hands-on testing is included to provide practical experience. By the end of this course, students should have working knowledge of static motor testing methods and be able to collect quality data to analyze for common motor failure modes. A final written and practical exam is required to complete this course.
