Winding Stress Detection with Electrical Signature Analysis

 Low voltage and VFD driven electric motors will often have voltage stresses between conductors.  In cases where this is severe, it is detectible as discharges in the airgap of the machine.  In this paper we will review one of the applications associated with turn faults stresses in stator windings of induction.  The discovery was originally…

MotorDoc LLC and Framatome Introduce Continuous Electrical Signature Analysis

Effective October, 2018, MotorDoc LLC and Framatome have entered into an agreement providing Continuous Monitoring Electrical Signature Analysis in the form of the EmpathCMS (EMPATH Continuous Monitoring System). EmpathCMS provides the ability to monitor your entire electric motor system from the inside out using the electric machine as the transducer covering incoming power to driven…
