How to Increase Equipment Reliability
มุมมอง 2.4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
How to increase equipment reliability by selecting the correct area of focus. Finding the area of focus is often times the first hurdle to overcome when beginning the journey of increasing reliability. This is not a comprehensive guide to understanding and executing a full blown reliability initiative, but rather a simple path to selecting problem areas, or equipment, to determine what to plan ...
Electrical Symbols THE BASICS

Although there are many more symbols to cover later on, we touch on the most common that will be related to simple motor control circuits. Understand the symbols in this video, and you will be well on your way to reading and troubleshooting motor control circuits. Thanks for for stopping by, please subscribe and share!!...
Why Use Contactors???
มุมมอง 14K3 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video, I talk about contactors, and why we use them in Industry today. A short comparison between control relays and contactors is given at the beginning of the video. This video is intended for newcomers to the electrical field, or industrial maintenance industry. Contactors are a key component that contribute to the automation and control concept in industry today. They also keep us s...
Motor Contactors Explained
มุมมอง 28K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This video is about the basic principle of operation for motor contactors. I talk about the theory of operation, and take apart a very common contactor to look at the inner workings. Also, some common failure modes are discussed about contactors. Please comment below with any questions. like and subscribe if you see value in this content. Thanks for watching!
Basic Motor Controls Explained
มุมมอง 156K4 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video, I discuss the basic principle of operation for a basic motor control circuit. This example could be found on a simple motor control circuit for say an exhaust fan. I draw out each component and explain how all the components interact with one another. Understanding the basic principle of operation first will set to stage for other TROUBLESHOOTING videos that are to come. Please c...
Leadership Skills for Managers (Setting a Boundary)
มุมมอง 1.6K4 ปีที่แล้ว
Leadership skills for managers can be a very important, yet often overlooked subject. In this video I discuss one specific scenario, in which an employee slightly crosses a boundary. I also discuss the consequences of remaining silent as a leader, and also the result of acting early, to diffuse these types of situations. Often times a persons behavior needs to be re-calibrated in order to maint...
Skilled labor jobs KILLED by TECHNOLOGY
มุมมอง 9904 ปีที่แล้ว
How technology has killed skilled labor jobs. This video explains how the advancements in technology over the years has lead to the decrease in the number of farms in America, which inadvertently has lead to less and less exposure to skills in the home setting. This is just one factor, that has lead to a lack of interest in the skilled labor trades, resulting in an increased demand for this spe...

The Maintenance Factory introductory video, is to explain why the channel was created and why I wish to be a part of the industrial maintenance community. The intent is to help anyone who is, and wishes to be a Maintenance Professional. These professionals include, but not limited to students in the skilled trades, newcomers to the industry, managers, administrators, and engineers alike. I wish...
Excellent video explaining the electrical system
Excellent !!
THANK YOU!!!! This was by far the best explanation
Really appreciate you man, excellent work.
Very good stuff on this video
GREAT VIDEO!!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us newer techs.
4:24 Primary side of the Transformer connected to L2 and L3 would be 277v, not 480v. Right?
I really like how you teach in a very simple way. I needed this. Thank tou
more videos please!
Please make more videos! Some of us really need them to develop new skills.
Very informative 🙌
you are SO GOOD AT EXPLAINING!
holy crap, this is the BEST video I have found, absolutely incredible, I will be watching this on repeat until it's drilled into my head. Thank you.
Why does the transformer only get power from L2 and L3 and not all three leads ?
Does it matter if you put the OL NC contacts before or after the M1 coil? Will that translate differently on a wiring diagram?
❤❤ great Chanel
This is one of the best examples of a really detailed yet straight forward training videos. Thank you
Thanks, good presentation.
Incredible video!!! Extremely informative! Thanks for simplifying the information.
You should do more videos
Very informative and transparent
i am trying to trouble shoot a Colchester bantam lathe which has forward and reverse plus a two speed electric motor do you have a video that covers that situation what is it called
Very good video. Especially you can explain it from two wires circuit to three wires circuit. It’s easy for the beginner to understand it. But for one thing it is confused for the beginner . It is the name, M1, for the motor and the low voltage control relay coil, which can not be named the same. The relay coil can be named as CR.
Thank you so much, great refresher
This is also why we use VFDs
great video, could you make more video on protection coordination?
Very informative. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks
Wish he kept making videos
👍🏿
I recently graduated an industrial maintenance program and was looking for videos to keep knowledge fresh. Fantastic job sir!
thanks
Only thing that's missing is an actual motor being hooked up. Diagrams are fine and great for understanding the circuit layout, but an actual motor, with fuse and push buttons and everything else would really hammer it home.
Thank you. You made a very clear explanation of contactor
Can someone give me advice why I don’t get volts on the left side of the auxiliary coil motor starter, I only get 120 volts on the right side of the auxiliary . And therefore my coil would not close to send power to my T1, T2, T3. The left side is wired to back 3 terminal and to my SOL common from the circuit board. And my right coil terminal is connected to the hot power ( on/off) switch and it goes to L1 to the circuit board?
Good sir

Thank you for sharing 🙏
one could spend a month to understand what this lad explains in 15 min!
I would use L1 and L3 cause L2 is the high leg even tho across the 2 phases it would still give 480V
finally someone did explain the functionality of the circuit correctly. Excellent work!
I just found your channel . Shame why aren't you putting out more content. I've been in electrical field awhile, you explain it well. Did you go to school? Or all your knowledge from working for someone?
Awesome job 👍!!
Thank you very much.
Great video 👍
is there a solenoid switch in aux 1 to maintain contact or how does that work?
Thanks
Thank you for the thorough explanation
I appreciate that clear explanation teacher
Wow!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏼 thank you so much bro, we have learned a lot from this video...🤞🏽
Great explanation !👍
