MOTOR REWINDING
SPLIT PHASE MOTOR
Is an A.C. motor with a fractional horse power size and its used to operate such
devices such as washing machine and small pumps?
FOUR MAIN PARTS
1. ROTOR – rotating part, consist of three essential elements.

a. Core – made of high grade electrical sheets steel called lamination.
b. Shaft – on which the laminated steel core is pressed.
c. Squirrel cage winding – composed of number of heavy copper bars which
are placed in the slots in the iron core and connected to each other.

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
2. STATOR – stationary part, composed of laminated steel core with semi closed
slots and have two windings RUNNING WINDING OR MAIN and STARTING
WINDING OR AUXILIARY.
a. Running Winding – generally located at the bottom of the stator slots.
b. Starting Winding – is usually located at the top of the running winding at
90 electrical degrees.
3. END PLATES OR BRACKETS - are fastened to the frame of the stator by

means of nuts and bolts.

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
4. CENTRIFUGAL SWITCH – is located inside the motor is the one who
connect and disconnect the starting winding after the motor reached the pre
determined speed.
5. NUTS AND BOLTS – is the one who hold the end plates in position and also
the rotor.

Date Revised:

Developed by:
PROCEDURE FOR ANALYZING MOTOR TROUBLES
If the motor fails to run properly a series of test is made on the motor to discover
the exact trouble whether or not the motor needs partial or complete rewinding.
1. MECHANICAL TROUBLES - broken or cracked end plates , badly bent shaft ,

broken or burned leads.
2. BEARING TROUBLES - try to move the shaft up and down any such
movement indicates worn bearing , next try to turn the rotor by hand to determine
whether it rotate freely if the shaft does not rotate freely indicates worn bearing.
3. TESTING THE MOTOR – examine the motor to discover whether or not the
internal wire touches to the iron core or to the stator slots.
4. RUN THE MOTOR – if there is something wrong internally the fuse may blow ,
the winding may smoke , the motor may rotate slowly or noisily or it may not
turn at all.
REWINDING THE SPLIT PHASE MOTOR

Before the motor is taken part the end plates and frame are marked with a center
punch so that it may be reassembled properly.
A damaged winding consist of several separate operations the most important of
which are ;
1. Taking Data
2. Stripping the Windings
3. Insulating the Slots
4. Rewinding
5. Connecting the Winding
6. Testing the new Winding
7. Baking and Varnishing
OPERATION OF THE SPLIT PHASE MOTOR

On start both Starting and Running Windings across to the line since the
centrifugal switch is closed. When the motor reached the predetermined speed the switch

is automatically cut off the switch and the starting winding is cut off to the line and only
the running winding leave across the line.
1. TAKING DATA – consist of noting specific information concerning the old

winding the information should be obtain for both starting and running windings
includes ;
1. Name plate data
2. The number of poles
3. The pitch of the coil
4. Number of turns in each coil
5. Size of the wire in each windings

2. STRIPPING THE WINDING - If only the starting winding needs replacing its coil
can usually be removed easily by cutting the wires on the other side of the stator and then
pulling them out from the other side. If the entire stator must be removed it should be
difficult and time consuming to remove the winding from the core without first softening or
clearing the varnish insulation.
During the process of stripping the number of turns in each of the coil of one
or two poles of the starting and running winding must be counted this information is then
recorded on the data sheet beside the curved lines that represent the pitch of the coil also
the size of the wire for both running and starting windings is measured by means of
American Wire Gauge. ( A.W.G.)
3. INSULATING THE SLOTS - Preparation for rewinding, before placing the windings
in the slots some form of insulation must be installed that the wire does not touch
to the any part of the iron core.
4. REWINDING
There are three methods of rewinding a split phase motor. The entire running
winding is placed in the slot first then the stating winding is wound on the top of it.
A.HAND WINDING – may be employed for both starting and running windings.
There are two advantages of this type of winding.
1. A tighter winding is possible especially where end rooms are limited.
2. A winding form is unnecessary.
B. FORM WINDING - The coil are first made on a wooden or metal formed and
then removed from the form and then placed in the slots. This is the most common
method of winding a split phase motor.
1. The first step is to obtain the size for the form from the core of the stator.
A single piece of heavy wire in shaped for the inner coil “Pitch 1-4 “allowing at least 1/4
extension at each end of the slots. The same procedure is repeated for the next larger coil
3/16 between the first and second coil and third.

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
2. The required number of turns of wire is wound on the blocks starting with the
smallest. The coils are tied with cord to keep the turns in position and then removed
from the form.
3. The coils are now placed in the slots and firmly pressed down to the bottom.
4. The wires are made fast in the slot with wedges.
C. SKEIN WINDING - This method is used mainly in the starting winding. This
type of winding uses one long coil for each pole. The coil is made large enough to be
wound into all the slots necessary to complete the individual section of the pole.
1. The size of the skein coil is usually obtained from the old one at the time the motor
disassembled. A skein winding is easy to recognize because the entire pole maybe remove as
one coil. The two ends are twisted together and the wire removed from the slots.
2. The wire is shaped into a rectangular or oblong form.
3. The required number of turns of the skein is then wound around the form with the
ends of the wire being left free.
4. The coil is now removed from the form and placed in the slots of the smallest pitch
after this the coil is twisted and placed in the slot of the next large pitch then continue until
the pole is completed.
5. CONNECTING THE WINDING

After all the poles of the motors have been wound the next step is to connect the
windings regardless with the number of the poles it is essential that adjacent ones be of
opposite polarity. This is accomplished by connecting them in such manner then the current
will flow through the first pole in a clockwise direction and likewise in alternate direction
through the remaining poles.
6. TESTING THE NEW WINDING

After the rewinding and connection had been completed it is important that the
winding and connections be thoroughly tested for shorts, grounds, open circuit and
incorrect connections. This must be done before baking and varnishing so that any trouble
that is discovered may be corrected more readily.
7. BAKING AND VARNISHING

When all connections between poles of the winding have been completed and
tested and the flexible leads to the power line attached and tied. The stator should be placed
in baking oven at a temperature of 250 degree F and preheated for a short period of time
approximately 1 hour.

Developed by:
HOW TO RECOGNIZE THE CONNECTION
Before attempting to record the types of connection of the split phase motor or
other A.C. motor read and study the name plate information. This will tell you whether it
is a single or dual voltage motor in most single voltage split phase motor the poles of the
winding are connected in series for alternate polarity.
REMEMBER
1. The running winding has heavier wire than the starting winding.
2. One wire of the starting winding is usually connected to the centrifugal
switch.
3. The starting winding is usually wound on the top of the running winding.
TERMINAL MARKING FOR SINGLE PHASE

SINGLE VOLTAGE
T1 and T4 shall be assigned to the main winding and T5 and T8 to the
starting winding.
TERMINAL MARKING ASSIGNED BY COLOR

When single voltage motor use leads color instead of letters and numbers
of marking to identify the leads, the color assignment shall be determined of the ff.
T1 – Blue T5 – Black
T2 - White T6 - Red
T3 – Orange T7 – No color assign
T4 - Yellow T8 – Brown
NOTE:
Connect T1 and T8, T4 and T5 for C.C.W.
Connect T1 and T5, T4 and T8 for C.W.
TROUBLE SHOOTING AND REPAIR

TESTING
To detect the defect of the split phase motor both the running winding and
starting winding should be tested for:
1. Grounds
2. Opens
3. Shorts
4. Reverses

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
GROUNDS:
A winding is said to be grounded when it makes an electrically contacts with
the iron of the motor.
1. The bolts that are fastened the end plates to the frame may make contact with
the winding as a result of the coil winding protruding too far from the ends of the slots.
2. The wire pressed against the lamination at the corner of the slots which is likely
to occur. If the slots insulation shifts during the winding process or if the insulation tears
or crack during winding.
OPEN CIRCUIT:
The usual cause of an open circuit in a split phase motor is a loosely or dirty
connection or broken wire which may be in either the running or the starting or in the
centrifugal switch determine whether the running winding is open the lead of the test lamp
are connected to the end of the winding.
SHORTS
Two or more turns contact each other electrically will cause a short circuit.
Run the motor for a short time and locate the hottest coil by feeling the poles. This coil is
generally the one that is shorted.
REVERSES
Result from the wrong connection between the poles and are the best
discovered by means of polarity test, two method are used namely the compass and the
nail method.
CAPACITOR MOTOR

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
CAPACITOR MOTOR
Is an A.C. motor and is made in sizes ranging ½ to 10 H.P. It is widely used to
operate machine such as refrigerators, compressors, washing machines, pumps and air
conditioning.
The construction of capacitor motor is similar to that of split phase motor but the
additional unit called capacitor is connected in series with the starting winding. The
capacitor is usually mounted on the top of the motor.
THREE TYPES OF CAPACITOR MOTOR

1. Capacitor Start Motor – is a capacitor motor in which the capacitor phase in
the circuit only during the starting period has a relatively high starting torque
and uses an electrolytic capacitor. The capacitor not be used for continuous
duty and must be switch out of the circuit when the motor attained a
predetermined speed.
2. Permanent Split Capacitor Motor – is a capacitor motor having the same

value of capacitance for both starting and running conditions. Have relatively
low starting torque and uses an oil impregnated paper as the die electric this
capacitor remains in the circuit at all times no centrifugal switch or other
disconnecting mechanism is necessary.
3. Two Value Capacitor Motor – is a capacitor motor using different values of
effective capacitance for both starting and running conditions has a high
starting torque and uses the electrolytic and oil capacitor in parallel at the start
when the motor reaches the required speed. The electrolytic is cut out of the
circuit permitting the motor to operate as permanent split capacitor motor.
THE CAPACITOR
Are rolled together into a compact unit are placed into a sealed metal or
plastic container .This may be either cylindrical or rectangular in shape and may be
mounted on ,in or away from the motor . The capacitor acts a storage unit it has a
capacity and provides leading current to the starting winding.
Electrolytic Capacitor – are used mainly in capacitor start motor and two value
capacitor motor.
Oil Filled Capacitor – this capacitor are mainly used in the permanent split
capacitor motor. Capacities range 2-50 microfarads.

Date Revised:
and Systems
Developed by:
OPERATION
During the starting period both running and starting windings are connected
across to the line since the centrifugal switch is closed. The starting winding is connected
in series with the capacitor and to the centrifugal switch. When the motor reached
approximately 75% of full speed the centrifugal switch open. This action cuts out both the
starting winding and the capacitor from the line circuit and leave only the running winding
across to the line.
PROCEDURE FOR ANALYZING MOTOR TROUBLES

1. Inspect the motor for mechanical defects.
2. Test the motor for bearing troubles.
3. Test for ground, shorts and so on.
4. Test for noise and speed.
5. Test the capacitor.

COMMON REASONS FOR CAPACITOR FAILURES
1. Stocked or fused contacts on the switch – this result in continuous
application of voltage to the capacitor.
2. Worn or frozen bearing
3. Excessive load on the motor – this prevent the motor from starting or from
reaching full speed.
4. Incorrect capacitance rating – the value of capacitance for maximum torque is
not extremely critical but too large or too small a capacitor will produced a
decrease in the starting torque.
5. Incorrect voltage rating of the capacitor – the voltage rating of the capacitor
is much higher than the voltage rating of the motor.
6. Low line voltage – low line voltage input to the motor may cause the motor to
continue running on the starting winding same as capacitor.
7. Shorted capacitor case – the case must be insulated from ground.
THREE PHASE MOTOR
Three phase motor vary from fractional horse power size to several thousand
horse power. These motor has fairly constant speed characteristic and are made in
designed giving a variety of torque characteristic some three phase motor have a high
starting torque and other has a low starting torque. Three phase motor are used to drive
machine tools, pumps, elevators, fans, cranes, blowers, and many other machines.
CONSTRUCTION
1. Stator – consist of a frame and a laminated steel core like that used in a split
phase motor.
2. Rotor – may be a die cast aluminum squirrel cage type or wound rotor.
3. End plates or Brackets – are bolted to each side of the stator frame and contain
the bearing in with the shaft revolves.

OPERATION
The coils in the slots of the stator are connected to form three separates windings
called phases. The windings or phases are connected so that a magnetic field is formed
inside the stator that causes the rotor to turn a certain speed.
CONNECTING THE THREE PHASE MOTOR
Rule 1
To find the number of coils in each phase divide the total number of coils in
the motor by number of phases.
36 coils = 12 coils / phase

3 phase
Rule 2
To find the number of coils in each poles divide the number of coils by the
number of poles.
36 coils = 9 coils / pole

4 poles
Rule 3
A simple method to determine the number of groups is to multiply the
number of poles by the number of phases.
4 poles x 3 phases = 12 groups
Rule 4
The number of coils in each group is equal to the total number of coils in the
motor divided by the number of groups.
36 coils = 3 coils / groups

12 groups
