Evaluating Direct-Current Motors Using Motor Circuit Analysis Basics
Howard W Penrose, Ph.D., CMRP MotorDoc LLC, www.motordoc.com The term MCA (Motor Circuit Analysis) is derived from a test method that provides information on the basic components of an alternate-current (AC) or direct-current (DC) electric motor. These basic components include: resistance, measured in Ohms; impedance, measured in Ohms; inductance, measured in Henries; the induction winding…
