journal and support the drive end of armature using the
”live” center of the shaft. With the armature supported on
both ends, measure the commutator runout and the bar
to bar differences with a dial gauge. Total indicated run-
out should not exceed 0.003” (0.08 mm) and not more
than 0.0005” (0.013 mm) between any two bars. If the
readings fall outside this limit, the commutator must be
turned and re–undercut.

If the commutator must be turned, use only high

Armature Testing
Before an armature is reassembled into the motor, the
following tests should be performed:
NOTE: Armature is wave wound and can be short cir-
cuit tested in the following manner.
1.
Check for grounded circuits by placing one test lead
of a dielectric tester on the commutator and the other
lead at the armature shaft. If the test light comes on, the
armature is grounded.
2.

saw blade) to locate any shorted windings.
Check for short circuits by placing the armature on a
If armature is found to be shorted, grounded or other-
wise damaged, replace the traction motor.
