Interrupted phase in the supply cable
Check the switches and cables.
X X X X Interrupted phase in the feeder cable
after switching on
Check the switches and cables.
X Mains voltage too low, frequency too
high
Check the power supply conditions.
X Mains voltage too high, frequency too
low
Check the power supply conditions.
X X X X X Stator winding incorrectly connected Check the winding connection in the terminal
box.
X X X X Winding short circuit or phase short
circuit in stator winding
Determine the winding resistances and insula-
tion resistances. Carry out repair work
after
consultation with the manufacturer.
X
Incorrect direction of rotation
Check the connection.
