The most applied testing methods were hands ("I feel it warmer than usual")
or big screwdrivers (" I believe that we need to replace the bearings").
For bearing inspection I've always been a supporter of Shock Pulse analysis
systems (SPM Instrument) and vibration analysis. The missing part was a
Since that moment I've understood the capabilities and the advantages of
this technique in terms of Cost Savings for the maintenance department.
With the intensive use of this testing technique on the electrical motors
installed or stored in the spare part warehouse is possible to:
find motors with deteriorated performance that will fail in the future;
assess the condition of a backup electrical motor (e.g. for a backup water
pump) before the re-start;
assess the condition of a spare electrical motor before the installation;
assess the condition of an electric motor before and after the maintenance
(e.g. before and after the stator rewinding by an external supplier);
assess the condition of a brand new motor (that can be out of specs).
Above all, very important, the test allows the control when the motors are
still in good condition or begins to have minor problems, therefore a lot
in advance compared to a voltmeter or a Megger...and leaving the motor in
place.

For which electric machines the MCA test is useful?
The MCA test is able to evaluate the operating condition of the following
electric machines:
