The responsibilit" for carr"ing out this Method 0tatement shall be that of the *iscipline Engineer5 :oremen! unless other1ise specificall" mentioned in this procedure. The %ualit" Engineer5 *iscipline Engineer5 :oremen shall be responsible for inspection & testing. #onflicting re;uirements for the installation and testing of the electrical motors! if an"! 1ith the manufacturer<s instructions and 5 or #ustomer<s specifications are encountered! then such re;uirements in addition to the non3conflicting re;uirements of this procedure shall prevail. Preparation The installation of the motor on the foundation and alignment 1ith the driven e;uipment is normall" carried out b" a separate cre1 of the mechanical e;uipment erection group. &fter the preliminar" alignment of the motor 1ith the driven e;uipment is carried out! the po1er and control cables shall be terminated as per the 1iring 5 termination details. The termination of cables shall be carried out in accordance 1ith the applicable procedure for cable la"ing and termination. 'rior to the testing of the motor! it shall be ensured that the coupling bet1een the motor and the driven e;uipment is released. The motor shall be chec=ed to ensure freedom from ph"sical defects and the rotor of the motor shall be rotated manuall" to ensure smooth rotation. Motor Data The follo1ing details pertaining to the motor as applicable shall be recorded in the form for LV / HV Electrical Motor Test Sheet M & E %#(:orm3 0043015 6EV. 07

Preliminary Checks The earthing conductor installed for providing earthing connection for the motor shall be chec=ed for the si>e & t"pe and it shall confirm to the specification. It shall be ensured that the conductor is properl" connected to the grid. The earthing resistance at the end of the conductor 1here it is to be connected 1ith the motor shall be measured and recorded. &fter recording the values! the conductor shall be connected to the motor as specified. Insulation resistance of stator 1inding bet1een phase and earth for one minute and 10 minutes shall be measured. ?ased on this measured value the polari>ation inde@ shall be calculated. 'olari>ation inde@ test need not be carried out for V motors! unless specificall" stated. :or the motors provided 1ith space heaters! insulation resistance of the heater 1ith respect to the earth shall be measured. The t"pe of the 1inding temperature detector! if an" provided! shall be ascertained to ensure compliance 1ith specification and the insulation resistance of the temperature detector to earth shall be measured. The direction of rotation of the driven e;uipment shall be ascertained from the driven e;uipment dra1ing 5 data sheet. If the motor is provided 1ith an" air temperature indicator! the t"pe of such indicator shall be chec=ed for compliance 1ith specification. In cases! 1here the motor is provided 1ith ancillar" s"stems vi>.! lube oil! air circulation etc.! such s"stems shall be chec=ed and it shall be ensured that the s"stem is free of damages is properl" installed and conforms to specification. Bhile chec=ing the insulation resistance! it shall be ensured that all V and control circuits are tested b" a o1 Voltage Megger onl". :or HV applications a 2.) CV or ) CV Megger shall be used as appropriate. Testing 'rior to energisation of the motor! it shall be ensured that the s1itch gear re;uired for the control of the motor is tested and commissioned and the test records are available! if the s1itch gear is ne1l" installed. /o oad 6un 'rior to the no load run! the ambient temperature shall be measured and recorded. The motor shall be energised and the rotation of the motor

shall be chec=ed. It shall be ensured that the direction of rotation of the motor is matching the direction of rotation of the driven e;uipment. ).).2.2 If the direction of rotation of the motor 1ith respect to the driven e;uipment is correct! then the no load running of the motor shall be carried out. In case the direction of rotation is 1rong! then the terminal connection shall be suitabl" re3connected to render the direction of rotation correct. /o load running of the motor shall be carried out for a duration of $0 minutes or as agreed 1ith the #ustomer and the no load current shall be measured. *uring the no load run test! the temperature of the bearings both at the *E and /*E shall be measured. In case! if the temperature measured on the bearings sho1 abnormal increase 1ith respect to ambient temperature! then the no load run shall be interrupted and the bearings shall be e@amined for possible mista=es of mis3alignment! 2am or improper lubrication. Dpon correction of such mista=es! the motor shall be further run on no load. oad Test oad test shall normall" be carried out onl" for HV motors unless other1ise agreed 1ith the #ustomer or the specification demands a load test. The motor starting current and motor full load current shall be ascertained from the motor data 5 specification and the value shall be recorded. The ambient temperature shall be measured and recorded. 'rior to the load test! it shall be ensured that the motor is aligned 1ith the driven e;uipment and the coupling is installed Efunction of separate cre1 under mechanical functionF. &fter ascertaining that the motor is aligned! and the driven e;uipment is properl" installed to ta=e the load for 1hich it is intended! the load test of the motor shall commence. The motor running current! the bearing temperatures for the *E and /*E and 1inding 5 frame temperature shall be measured immediatel" after starting the motor and thereafter the values shall be measured at intervals of $0 minutes.
