drive.

Step 2. Check that the motor is installed according to the motor instruction manual.

Step 3. If possible, uncouple the motor from the driven machinery.

Step 4. Rotate the motor shaft by hand to check that the motor is free from any

binding or mechanical load problem.

Step 5. Check that no loose items such as shaft keys, couplings, etc., are present.

Step 6. Check all connections for tightness and proper insulation.

Step 7. Check that the interior of the motor is clean and dry.

4.7.5 Checking the Installation with Power Off

Perform the following tests to verify that:

Correct power is being supplied to the drive

Wiring has been done properly

There are no grounds in the magnetic control circuits or rotating equipment

All safety devices are in place and functional.
