Troubleshooting Motor Controls

Troubleshooting Motor Controls is an award-winning electrical training program that really builds on what you learned in the Basic Techniques program. In this course, you get to troubleshoot a motor control circuit that operates a reversing motor-controlled garage door.

What’s Inside This Circuit?

This circuit is pretty cool! It has various components like limit switches, a three-phase reversing motor starter, push buttons, a step-down transformer, and a safety switch. You’ll need some elementary wiring and connection diagrams to tackle 28 faults of different levels of difficulty!

How Does It Work?

The application includes sections that explain how the circuit works and how to use the troubleshooting tools effectively. Plus, it tracks how much time and money you spend fixing issues. It even records all the steps you take to solve each fault, which can be super handy for later analysis!
