I. Make sure you've properly understood the texts dealing with troubleshooting of electrical equipment.
Troubleshooting is the procedure of
finding a fault;
eliminating a fault;
both finding and eliminating a fault.
Heat and moisture cause:
rated current flow;
abnormal current flow;
minimum current flow.
When measuring voltage the electrician must connect the voltmeter:
in parallel with the circuit;
in antiparallel with the circuit;
in series with the circuit.
When measuring current the electrician must connect the ammeter:
a) in parallel with the circuit;
in antiparallel with the circuit:
in series with the circuit.
Before applying an ohmmeter the electrician must:
turn on the power;
turn off the power;
turn down the power.
If the fuse is open, you should:
rewind it;
repair it;
replace it
If a D.C. motor fails to run, one of the reasons is:
shorted armature circuit;
open armature circuit
incorrectly connected armature circuit.
If you've found out that the shunt field winding has been incorre ly connected, you should connect it in accordance with:
a factory mark;
a factory wiring diagram
factory instructions.
If you've found out that the parallel field winding has been parti ly shunted, you should:
connect it to other windings;
connect it to the frame;
disconnect it from both other windings and the frame.
If you observe a differential connection of the shunt and the serie windings in a compound motor, you should connect them:
in opposition;
in antiparallel;
accordantly.
If the motor ventilation channels are clogged, you should:
blow them trough;
remove dirt from them;
clean them.
If the commutator bars are either high or low, you should:
re-arrange the commutator;
grind the commutator;
set the brushes on neutral.
If a three-phase motor fails to start, one of the reasons may be:
rotor one-sidedly attracted to the stator;
rotor one-sidedly repelled from the stator;
rotor one-sidedly fastened to the stator.
If you observe large resistance on the phase rotor circuit, the reason may be:
a defective circuit-breaker;
a faulty rheostat;
a worn bearing.
If the temperature of cooling water in an air cooler increases, you should:
blow trough ventilation channels;
remove dirt from air filters;
clean the air cooler.
If a three-phase motor nominally loaded runs slowly, one of the causes is incorrect voltage at the terminals of the stator winding. It is:
rated;
