Here’s the ideal resource for anyone who

or maintain industrial-size electric motors.
Expert author Augie Hand uses clear,
jargon-free language and time-saving flow charts -- minus the complicated

repair, or repair it in place – decisions that can make the difference
between profitability and loss.
Augie also includes an invaluable host of
troubleshooting tricks and procedures gleaned from over forty years in the
field to cover electric motors from top to bottom as only an insider can.

procedures for determining and correcting any type of problem.
Troubleshooting examples make the concepts
crystal-clear, and review questions at the end of each chapter reinforce
the lesson.
Augie also delves into crucial safety
issues everyone in the field should be familiar with. Electric Motor
Maintenance & Troubleshooting reflects the author’s firm belief that every
problem has an explanation and a solution.
