When measuring resistance of a motor, make sure
the power is disconnected prior to testing.
Set up meter following steps under
“
Measurement
Procedure
”
on page 16, and proceed with the fol-
lowing:
• Connect the red test lead to one power input line
of the motor and the black test lead to the other
power input line of the motor. In most applications
if the reading is OL, the motor winding is open.
• Connect the red test lead to the frame of the
motor and the black test lead to the winding. In
most applications if a reading of 0 Ohms is dis-
played, the winding is shorted to the motor frame
(ground).
