    How to ensure correct phase rotation on generator

    Hi all, Might seem like a silly question, but I have a client who wishes to install a 3 phase generator to back up the supply of an office building. The client approached me and said before the job commences, he wanted to establish if the phase rotation of the generator would match the phase...

    Stepping Motor Angle Rotation using Logic IC's

    This is more a challenge to myself and why not for some of you as well. I will try to make it myself alone but... it will be easier and faster with some more experienced help from you guys. As the title says, with logic IC's. I could/should make it with an arduino or my favorite PIC12F508...

    Siemens Reversing the direction of rotation of the DC motor

    Hello everyone. I have 1 Siemens "1GG6164-0JH40-6VV5-Z" Model DC Motor. It works in 2 phases. What should I do to reverse the rotation direction of this motor? I have marked the B1 and B2 Terminals in the Photo below. B1 and B2 are phase ends.

    phase rotation incorrect at origin of install .

    Hi all, What are your views on phase rotation. Whilst doing an eicr for a customer's premises I found that the phase rotation at the origin was anti clockwise . the eicr form is asking for verification of phase sequences , which there is although anticlockwise . What would you do there in the...

    Help with phase rotation fault question please

    Hi, When proving supply and polarity at a three phase cut out on a new supply with test lamps L1 - N is 230V L2 - N is 230V L3 - N is 230V L1 - L2 is 400V L1 - L3 is 400V So far so good. But here's the problem: L2 - L3 is NO LIGHT!!! The only thing I can think of is that L2 is fed...

    Phase Rotation/Sequence

    So I'm using a bit of this bank holiday to do some college work. I'm at a question as follows: Phase sequence is to be confirmed for the DBs and equipment during initial verification. State the locations at which phase sequence is to be confirmed for the circuits supplied from DB2. I've had a...

    Ancient single phase electric motor - reversing the rotation

    Morning Gents, I hope that you can help me with this problem. I am not an electrician - I just know enough to be dangerous. I recently bought this beautiful beast : It's a Denford tools Viceroy pillar drill from the 60s or maybe even the 50s. Nice and cheap with one catch - it had a non...

    phase rotation testers

    anybody use them. my jtl training advisor wants me to check phase rotation of motors for portfolio. i don't see the point. the only motors we use are for fans and vsd driven so you can see what way they spin. i thought fair enough if there not expensive ill have a look but at £100 ill pass

    Phase Rotation

    Does it need to be correct?, Because we recently whent to a job and stuck on one of the consumer units was a sign saying 'Phase Rotation Incorrect'. As I'm still an apprentice I don't know about the test, and No one I asked has ever done one, So Does it not matter that it is wrong? Or is the...

    Voltage Optimisers.

    Has anyone come across a phase sequence fault when switching on a voltage optimiser for the first time. The system is a cheap chinese one I think with terrible instructions. Can a voltage optimiser know if your input wiring is black, grey, brown instead of Br, Bl, Gr? I ask because we don't...
