Introduction 

  

Congratulations on your purchase of the Triplett PR450 Motor and Phase Rotation Tester. This 
handheld instrument detects the rotational field of three-phase systems and determines motor-
rotation direction. Color-coded test leads are provided for connecting to the system or motor 
under test.
