    Motor IR testing

    I have been searching the web for some "basic" guide lines to follow on doing a insulation resistance test on motors. I seem to be getting inconsistent procedures on test voltage range and in particularly "lead placement". For insistence: I have read test voltage range <1000v = 500vdc range...

    Wound Rotor Induction Motor

    When looking in the motor terminal box ( WRIM ) is it correct to assume that the group of wires with the ground is the stator. And can the rotor be wired wye or delta. THANKS
