Brake:
- Brake switch, if furnished, shall be adjusted to properly open and close the contacts.
- The linings shall not be worn to the extent that the rivets touch the drum.
- Brake shoes shall have minimum lift without dragging.
- Ensure full lift is consistent.
- Brakes to be adjusted to comply with code requirements.
Motors and Generators:
- Bearings shall run quietly.
- DC motor field coils shall not have excessive movement.
- Electrical connections shall be tight. Look for discoloration.
- Armature or rotor clearances shall be approximately equal throughout their circumference.
Commutators shall run true. Undercutting shall provide clean slots without feather edge mica.
Scoring or grooving, if any, shall be at a minimum.
- Brushes must be free in holders. Inspect for damage, copper embedment and short brushes.
- Pin point sparking is normal during acceleration and stopping. Severe arcing shall be investigated.
- Insulation resistance must be monitored to ensure proper life of electrical equipment. The minimum resistance permissible depends upon the operating voltage and temperature. Wet conditions will reduce insulation resistance as will high humidity. Any leakage to ground less than 1 megaohm needs to be investigated. The use of high voltage meggers or high voltage pulse tests is not recommended. Such testing may result in insulation damage that cannot be readily detected. In most cases, the windings can be field cleaned to restore proper insulation resistance. In extreme cases, the equipment may have to be removed to a qualified shop for steam cleaning, dipping and baking. Care must be taken when painting windings in the field to avoid sealing in lubricants or carbon dust.
