Default Re: How to test a 48 volt electric motor

Here's the info on how to bench test an electric motor, this is originally from Stevegrmich.


To test run a SERIES motor

Remove all cables from the motor; connect a jumper from A1 to S1. Connect 12 to 24 volts, positive @ A2 and negative @ S2. Swap S1 and S2 to change rotation direction.


To test run a Sep-Ex (regen) motor

Remove all cables from the motor; connect a jumper from A1 to F1 and a jumper from A2 to F2. Connect 12 to 24 volts, positive @ A1/F1 and negative @ A2/F2. Swap F1 and F2 to change rotation direction.

CAUTION:
Allowing a motor to spin @ high RPM can cause catastrophic failure!

I thought this info would've been sticky-fied long ago actually, but I have to dig for it every time someone asks, as I'm sure others do too.

Sticky please!

needs to be removed since you will destroy the motor if you run it on a bench without being attached to the differential.
