  To troubleshoot a Sedgwick Saw with a three-phase motor that won't start, verify the following: * The isolator is switched to ON and all STOP buttons are out. * The overload button is reset. * The starter coil/contactor is operational. * There are no loose connections. * There are no blown fuses. * The supply is reaching the starter and the motor. * Check the voltage between the phases at the starter and motor.

  If your Sedgwick Saw's three-phase motor runs but trips, consider the following checks: * Examine the overload setting in the starter. * Assess the current drawn without any load applied. * Check the current drawn when the saw is under load. * Measure the supply voltage without load when switching on. * Ensure the supply voltage is within the allowed variation of plus or minus 6%. * Measure the supply voltage under load and with the motor off. * Confirm the supply to all three phases at the isolator, starter, and motor. * Inspect all fuses.

  If your Sedgwick Saw's single-phase motor runs but trips, you should check: * The overload setting in the starter. * The current drawn without load applied. * The current drawn under load. * The supply voltage without load when switched on. * Whether the voltage variation is within the allowed plus/minus 6%. * The supply voltage under load and with the motor off. * Check at the isolator, starter, and motor.

  Luis Hoffman PhDAug 17, 2025
  If a Sedgwick Saw motor attempts to start and then trips (three-phase), make sure that: * The machine is not jammed, and the spindle is free to rotate. * Check the winding resistance of each motor phase; the values should all balance. * Check the insulation resistance between windings and earth. * Verify that the correct cable size has been used to install the machine, as long runs of cable can cause voltage drop.

  If your Sedgwick Saw motor attempts to start and then trips (single phase), consider these checks: * Ensure a healthy line voltage for the single-phase permanent capacitor motor to reach its required starting torque. * Verify that the correct cable size has been used, as long cable runs can cause voltage drop. * Confirm that the machine is not jammed and the spindle rotates freely. * Listen for audible operation of the centrifugal switch. * Check the integrity of the capacitors. * Test the winding resistances of the start and run windings. * Measure the insulation resistance between motor windings and earth.
