I. Pre-Maintenance Preparation

  1. Safety Isolation & Power Shutdown

    • Disconnect and lock out the power supply (LOTO), verify voltage absence using a discharge rod, and ground the motor windings to prevent accidental energization.
    • Post warning signs and establish a restricted zone. Personnel must wear 10kV insulated gloves, boots, and goggles.
  2. Preliminary Fault Diagnosis

    • Visual Inspection: Check for cracks, burn marks, or excessive dust on the casing and ensure legible nameplate data.
    • Electrical Tests: Measure insulation resistance with a megohmmeter (e.g., 2500V for 6kV motors; minimum 1MΩ/kV). Record polarization index (≥2.0) and absorption ratio (≥1.3).
    • Mechanical Check: Rotate the rotor manually to detect bearing obstruction or abnormal noise.

II. Motor Disassembly

  1. External Component Removal

    • Label and disconnect power cables (e.g., U1, V1, W1), then short-circuit and ground them with copper wires.
    • Remove cooling fans, shrouds, and couplings, documenting the disassembly sequence.
  2. Bearing & End Shield Removal

    • Mark alignment between end shields and the frame before disassembly. Use pullers or copper mallets to avoid damaging bearings.
    • Inspect bearings for pitting, cracks, or excessive play (e.g., >0.2mm clearance requires replacement).
  3. Rotor Extraction

    • For large motors, use balanced hoisting tools to extract the rotor without contacting stator windings. Measure air gap uniformity (deviation ≤±5%).

III. Core Component Maintenance

  1. Stator Inspection

    • Winding Check: Identify grounding, short circuits, or breaks. Re-insulate damaged areas with Class F mica tape (10 layers) or rewind if necessary.
    • Core Repair: Tighten loose laminations with insulation wedges; perform core loss tests on overheated sections.
    • Slot Wedge Fixing: Secure loose wedges with epoxy resin to eliminate hollow sounds.
  2. Rotor Maintenance

    • Bar Repair: Weld broken rotor bars (copper/aluminum) using TIG welding or replace with copper bars.
    • Slip Ring/Commutator: Machine surfaces to roughness Ra≤1.25μm; adjust brush pressure to 15-25kPa.
  3. Lubrication & Cooling System

    • Clean bearing housings and repack with grease (e.g., lithium-based, ≤2/3 capacity). Clear blocked cooling ducts and replace damaged fan blades.

IV. Reassembly & Testing

  1. Reassembly Steps

    • Reverse the disassembly sequence. Heat bearings to 80–100°C for installation (avoid direct flame exposure).
    • Seal terminal boxes with dual-layer protection (rubber gasket + waterproof putty). Ground cable shields at one end.
  2. Electrical Tests

    • DC Withstand Test: Apply 2.5× rated voltage (e.g., 25kV for 10kV motors); leakage current deviation ≤50%.
    • No-Load Test: Run for 2 hours, monitoring current imbalance (≤5%), bearing temperature rise (≤55K), and vibration (≤2.8mm/s).
  3. Protection Device Calibration

    • Verify differential protection response time (≤35ms) and overcurrent tolerance (±5%).

V. Documentation & Maintenance Planning

  1. Data Archiving
    • Record insulation resistance, withstand voltage, and no-load current for trend analysis.
  2. Scheduled Maintenance
    • Minor Maintenance (6–12 months)​: Clean, tighten bolts, and replace lubricant.
    • Major Overhaul (5+ years)​: Full disassembly and winding replacement.

Critical Notes

  • Safety Compliance: High-voltage tests require a team; keep fire extinguishers ready.
  • Environmental Control: Maintain humidity ≤80% to prevent insulation damage.

This procedure should be adapted based on motor specifications. For OEM-specific guidance , consult manufacturer manuals.
