Title: Madwley 3KVA
Post by: Startomatic on June 26, 2011, 07:57:59 AM
my Mawdley is giving me 90 volt (instead of 220) on AC. i stripped it and found that 1 of the 4 DC brushes is worn and no longer seat on the commutator so this was a easy fixed. but i was pleasantly surprise by the additional 5 bands of held down windings on the rotor to keep it bomb proof.

this is really new to me and would like to share it with you gentlemen.

the stator was rewinded once some 30 odd years ago when it was zapped by a 25KVA unit someone forget the manual change over.
