Application Notes
Power Tools & Small Appliances
This test applies to any device being tested that uses a line cord. For
double insulated power tools, connect one lead to the device's housing
(i.e. chuck, blade, etc.) and the other lead to the end of the power cord.
AC Motors Testing
Disconnect the motor from the line by disconnecting the wires from the
motor terminals or opening the mains switch. If the main switch is used
and the motor also has a starter then the starter must be held, by some
means, in the "ON" position. In the latter case, the measured resistance
will include the resistance of the motor, wire and all other components
between the motor and the main switch. If a weakness is in indicated, the
motor and other components should be checked individually. If the motor
is disconnected at the motor terminals, connect one lead to the grounded
motor housing and the other lead to one of the motor leads.
