Chaos and Caffeine Podcast 44 Field Motor Insulation Testing

Based on a question related to insulation testing this week. We cover common tests from resistance testing, insulation resistance, dielectric absorption and polarization index, hipot, VLF, surge testing and PD surge. These reference IEEE 112, IEEE 43, IEEE P97, IEEE 95, IEEE 433, IEEE 1415, IEEE 522, IEEE 62.2. So, yes, we are going to discuss the tests you can perform on small through very large motors, except certain specialty testing, which we will cover in a future podcast. We go to a freeze-dried coffee and then discuss EMPOWER DCA (dc motor testing) and CMS2 (continuous monitoring) and https://spmacademy.com where you can use code MotorDoc for a 10% discount.
