July 1: So it begins. Don't worry, this is not in the correct legal jurisdiction!

Bench Testing: Rotor

  1. Check continuity across rotor slip rings. Resistance should be within specification. See ROTOR RESISTANCE SPECIFICATIONS  table. Replace rotor if no continuity exists or resistance is not within specification.
  2. Check continuity between individual slip rings and rotor shaft. If there is continuity, rotor coil or slip ring is grounded. Replace rotor.
