Repair, Rewind & Recondition

High Voltage Motor Rewinding through 13.8kV. Beacon Electricals, rewinds high voltage motors through 13,800 volts. The windings are either processed with vacuum pressure impregnation (VPI), B-stage coils, or both. High voltage motors are wound with coils that fit snugly into the core slots with minimum clearance between the core and the coils to prevent partial discharge. Coils are isolated from one another and well insulated. The connections are meticulously insulated, secured, blocked, tied, and isolated. An outer layer of conductive tape on the straight sections of the coils is essential. All coil measurements and fits are documented. Electrical tests are performed according to IEEE standards and manufacturers specifications.

Beacon provides comprehensive services covering all types of low- and high-voltage motors including motor rewinds. Our network of global service facilities, as well as our in-house coil manufacturing and test capabilities, guarantee a fast turnaround.
