Phasing & Motor Resistance Tester
A Phasing & Motor Resistance Tester is a specialized electrical testing instrument used to verify the correct phase sequence (phasing) of three-phase systems and measure the resistance of motor windings. It ensures safe and efficient operation of motors, transformers, and other three-phase equipment by detecting incorrect phase connections, identifying open or shorted windings, and providing precise resistance measurements. This tester is widely used in industries, electrical maintenance, and commissioning of motors and generators.
|
Phase Sequence/Phasing Detection: |
Determines the correct rotation direction of three-phase motors. |
|
Detects phase sequence errors to prevent motor damage. |
|
|
Can test phasing on live systems safely without disconnecting equipment (depending on model). |
|
|
Motor Winding Resistance Measurement: |
Measures resistance of motor windings with high accuracy. |
|
Detects winding faults such as open circuits or shorts. |
|
|
Typically uses low DC current for resistance measurement to prevent heating or damage. |
|
|
Wide Voltage Compatibility: |
Can test low, medium, and high-voltage motors depending on model. |
|
Suitable for both 3-phase and single-phase motors. |
