Webinar Description:
Voltage imbalance can point to a power quality issue, a power circuit problem, or both. Making the wrong call can send your troubleshooting efforts in the wrong direction, lead to unnecessary component replacement, and leave the original problem unresolved.
Join Noah Bethel, CMRP, Vice President of Product Development at PdMA Corporation, for a practical session on power circuit analysis techniques. Noah will walk through test considerations for energized and de-energized motors and explain how multiple technologies can be used together to improve troubleshooting accuracy.
The session will introduce the Electric Motor Reliability Trifecta and Motor Fault Zone Analysis before exploring key power circuit testing considerations. Noah will also share troubleshooting procedures and a real-world case study to demonstrate how test data can be correlated to identify the true source of a problem.
Whether you are building your knowledge of motor reliability or looking to strengthen your existing troubleshooting process, this session will provide practical techniques you can apply during your next power circuit investigation.
Learning Takeaways:
- Build a stronger understanding of motor reliability basics
- Review essential power circuit fundamentals
- Learn how to correlate findings from multiple technologies
- Develop a more effective and reliable troubleshooting approach
