Setting Up A Surge Test For Armature Bar-To-Bar Testing - Megger Baker AWA-IV User Manual

Using the Baker AT101 ZTX with Baker AWA-IV Analyzers

Setting Up a Surge Test for Armature Bar-to-bar Testing

1. First, you must create a Motor ID for the armature to be tested. You can easily do this by starting with the Motor
ID for the armature's motor, allowing you to re-use most of the nameplate information already entered. This
information will also help you identify the target voltage needed for your armature test.
2. Save the new Motor ID with a name similar to the whole motor, but with "ARM" or "armature" attached for
easier distinction.
3. Ensure that the new armature Motor ID is selected, then create a new Test ID to specifically test armatures. For
example, create a new test ID called "Arm 600 VDC." After creating the new Test ID, the Tests tab will look
similar to the example below.
4. Check the Edit Test ID box.
5. Click on the ON/OFF button in the Surge Test section to turn Surge test ON.
6. Click on the test configuration button at the end of the Surge Test section. The Surge Test setup window will
appear.
