Listen Later

Learn about the recommended tests that help you ensure the reliability of motors and generators.

In this episode of Energy Talks, we dive into the heart of power generation at utilities and industrial plants where the reliable operation of motors and generators plays a critical role. More specifically, we will discuss the Basics of Rotating Machine Testing to help keep these machines up and running.

**Alexander Herrer**a, an OMICRON application engineer who specializes in rotating machine testing, describes the recommended diagnostic tests on stator cores, stator windings, and rotors, and how the data helps you not only detect developing defects early but also prioritize condition-based maintenance at a time when budgets and technical teams are shrinking.

In addition, Alex emphasizes essential safety procedures during testing. He also highlights the importance of comparative measurements and offers useful tips for testing rotating machines.

Watch Alex perform these recommended measurements and interpret the data in OMICRON’s video series “Basics of Rotating Machine Testing”.
