Thread: Motor sounding rough
18/03/2014 11:29:51

Ian,

The excessive noise level, combined with the large off-load current suggests that the motor is continuing to run on the starter windings. Although you may be able to hear the centrifugal switch "operating", the stater winding is not being switched off.

The vibration is caused by the strong magnet field brought about by the starter winding, ie strong compared to the field caused by the field windings, so the running becomes very rough indeed.
