Motor ch 18

Troubleshooting Motors

QuestionAnswer
1. A ___ occurs when current leaves its normal path and travels to the frame of the motor. ground fault circuit
2. A special zip-sealed jacket placed around a motor provides protection from pests. True or False True
3. ___ is the most common causes of motor failure. Overloading
4. ___ is a power supply problem that occurs when one of the 3-phase line leading to a 3-phase motor no longer delivers voltage to the motor. Single phasing
5. Single phasing causes less damage to coils than voltage unbalance. True or False False
6. Belt deflection should equal about ___ per inch of span. 1/64"
7. A ___ is a temporary condition where a higher-than-normal voltage exists on one or more of the power lines. voltage surge
8. A motor is ___ when it draws more than rated current. overloaded
9. If the span between the center of the drive pulley and the center of the driven pulley is 24", the belt deflection should be 3/8" 24 * (1/64)
10. Belt tension adjustments are usually accomplished by moving the drive component away from or closer to the driven component. True or False True
11. A ___ detect insulation failure on wires by measuring resistance values during high-voltage test condition. megohmmeter
12. For solid-state starting, the voltage during starting should be __ the incoming measured voltage. 15% - 50% less than
13. ____ is a medium in which an electric field i maintained with little or no outside energy supply. Dielectric material
14. A ___ wears faster than any other component of a DC motor. brush
15. Whenever more than 1%___ is measured, the power system should be checked for excessive loads connected to one line. voltage unbalance
16. The starting winding of a ___ motor is automatically removed by a centrifugal swithc as the motor accelerates. split-phase
17. Before checking windings of a DC ___ motor, the shunt winding need to be isolated from the armature windings. compound
18. For __ starting, the starting voltage should be 50%, 65%, or 80% of the incoming line voltage. autotransformer
19. A ___ can be used to test a mechanical switch for an open circuit. DMM
20. A ground fault is caused when the ___ breaks down or is damaged and touches the metal frame of a motor. insulation
21. A dual-voltage, wye-connected motor has ___separated stator winding circuits. 4
22. Generally, a dual-voltage, delta-connected motor has ___ separate stator winding circuits. 3
23. All three types of DC motors have a different armature and frame but the way the field coil and armature are connected is the same. True or False False
24. Terminal markings F1 and F2 always indicate the ___ leads of a DC motor. shunt
25. A possible cause for a shaded-pole motor that will not start is a ___. blown fuse or open CB
26. When troubleshooting a split-phase motor, the problem has been isolated to the start and run windings. An ohmmeter reads 0 across the windings. What does this mean? short
27. Read the question on page 90 T1 and T4 re wound

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
