| |
| Routine Test |
| |
| The following routine tests as per
IS-325 are conducted on all motors; |
| |
 |
Insulation resistance
test. |
 |
Measurement of resistance of
windings of stator and wound rotor. |
 |
No-Load test. |
 |
Locked rotor readings of voltage,
current and power input at suitable
reduced voltage. |
 |
Reduced voltage running up test
(for squirrel cage motors). |
 |
Open circuit voltage ratio of
stator and rotor windings (for
slip ring motors). |
 |
High voltage test. |
|
| |
| Type Test |
| |
| The following Type tests as
per IS-325 are carried out: |
| |
 |
Measurement of resistance
of windings of stator and wound
rotor. |
 |
No load test at rated voltage
to determine input current, power
and speed. en circuit voltage |
 |
Open-circuit test of wound rotor
motors. |
 |
Reduced voltage running up test
at no load. |
 |
Locked rotor readings of voltage,
current and power input at suitable
reduced voltage. |
 |
Full load test to determine
efficiency, power factor and slip. |
 |
Temperature rise test. |
 |
Momentary overload test. |
 |
Insulation resistance test. |
 |
High voltage test. |
|
| |
| Additional Test |
| |
| The following additional tests
are also carried out on request : |
| |
 |
Test for vibration
severity of motor on no-load. |
 |
Test for noise levels of motor
on no-load. |
 |
Test for degree of protection
by enclosure (For second numeral
only). |
|
| |
| Note : Type test
on vertical motors will be conducted
with its respective/suitable pump coupled.
Load test and temperature rise test
will be conducted at maximum available
load. |
