Electric Motor Testing Training | Insulation, Winding & Motor Troubleshooting

Learn how to test, diagnose, and troubleshoot electric motors before costly failures occur. The Electricity Forum Training Institute (EFTI) offers practical, instructor-led Electric Motor Testing Training (https://electricityforum.com/electric... ) covering insulation resistance, winding testing, surge testing, motor circuit analysis, and predictive maintenance techniques. Register: https://electricityforum.com/electric... This 12-hour, two-day course is available through live online and in-person instruction. Earn 1.2 CEUs (12 PDHs) while learning proven methods for evaluating three-phase AC induction motors, single-phase motors, DC motors, synchronous motors, and wound rotor motors. Why take this course? Unexpected motor failures cause production downtime, expensive repairs, and operational disruptions. This vendor-neutral training teaches you how to identify developing motor faults, interpret electrical test results, and make informed run, repair, or replace decisions. Course content Day 1 – Testing de-energized motors • Motor construction, common failure modes, and fault zones • Motor nameplate data, visual inspections, and preliminary checks • Electrical safety, lockout/tagout, NFPA 70E, and CSA Z462 • Insulation resistance testing and IEEE 43 requirements • Polarization index, dielectric absorption, and hipot testing • Winding resistance, continuity, and phase unbalance • Phase angle, inductance, and motor circuit analysis • Surge comparison testing for turn-to-turn winding faults Day 2 – Testing and troubleshooting running motors • Supply voltage, running current, and power quality analysis • Motor starting, inrush current, and load problems • Rotor faults and motor current signature analysis (MCSA) • Bearing condition monitoring and vibration analysis • Ultrasound and infrared thermography • Testing single-phase, DC, synchronous, and wound rotor motors • Motor troubleshooting procedures and diagnostic case studies • Test documentation, trending, and maintenance recommendations Who should attend? • Industrial electricians and electrical maintenance technicians • Electrical and plant engineers • Reliability and predictive maintenance professionals • Instrumentation and control technicians • Maintenance supervisors and managers • Motor repair and electrical testing personnel • Utility, manufacturing, mining, and industrial maintenance teams What you'll learn By completing this course, you will be able to: • Perform insulation resistance and motor winding tests • Identify winding faults, shorted turns, and insulation deterioration • Interpret winding resistance, phase angle, and surge test results • Measure voltage, current, and power quality at operating motors • Diagnose rotor defects, bearing problems, and mechanical faults • Apply IEEE, NEMA, NETA, NFPA, and EASA testing practices • Develop reliable motor testing and preventive maintenance procedures Course credentials and benefits • 12 hours of live instructor-led training • 1.2 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) / 12 PDHs • EFTI Certificate of Course Completion • Printed course materials • Electric Motor and VFD Handbook • Complimentary industry magazine subscription • $100 coupon toward a future EFTI training course (restrictions apply) Team training Need to train multiple employees?
