MX2 Electrical carries out Motor installation and repair in Broadstone, then tests the motor circuit and leaves a certificate where the work needs one.


## Transparent rates for motor installation and repair

We quote work clearly without hidden charges. Our hourly labour rate applies on site, with replacement machinery and specialist parts priced separately before work proceeds.
- Electric motor installation and repair: from £70 an hour; from £70 an hour
- Labour is billed using our standard hourly rate for the time spent testing, removing, fitting and commissioning the motor.
- The overall cost varies depending on whether the existing motor can be repaired on site or requires a replacement unit.
- Motor power ratings, single or three phase supply requirements, replacement starters, and cable run lengths determine materials pricing.
- Full costs for replacement parts and additional electrical hardware are explained and confirmed before anything is ordered.

## What happens on the day

Every motor repair or replacement follows a structured sequence to safeguard equipment, verify electrical characteristics and return machinery to service without delay.

### Safe isolation and mechanical inspection

We identify the dedicated circuit at the distribution board, isolate the power supply and lock it off safely. We inspect the motor nameplate ratings, mounting brackets, drive belts, couplings and starter gear before dismantling any connections.

### Electrical testing and fault diagnosis

Using calibrated test instruments, we measure insulation resistance between windings and to earth, test phase-to-phase continuity on three phase units, and evaluate starter capacitors on single phase units to establish exactly why the motor failed.

### Motor installation or on-site repair

We complete on-site terminal replacements, bearing swaps or internal winding connections where appropriate, or mechanically unbolt the failed motor to mount a new unit. We align the shafts, secure all mountings and terminate power conductors to the terminal block.

### Functional testing and documentation

Power is restored to observe starting current, running current, operating temperature and correct shaft rotation. When installation work involves new circuits or altered distribution boards, appropriate certification is generated.

## Frequently asked questions about motor repairs


### Do you work on both single phase and three phase motors in Broadstone?

Yes. We inspect, repair and replace single phase motors used in domestic appliances, booster pumps and garage doors, as well as heavy-duty three phase motors operating on commercial and industrial equipment.

### Can a seized or burnt out motor be repaired on site?

Certain faults such as failed start capacitors, damaged terminal blocks, faulty contactors or loose connections can be rectified on site. If the internal copper windings have completely burnt out, a replacement motor is usually the most economical solution, or the unit can be taken to a dedicated rewind facility.

### Why does my motor keep tripping the circuit breaker?

A motor that trips the supply immediately or after running briefly may suffer from degraded winding insulation, a failed start capacitor, an overloaded mechanical bearing, or a faulty thermal overload relay. We test the circuit systematically to isolate whether the fault is electrical or mechanical.

### Will I receive an electrical certificate for the motor work?

When motor work involves running a brand new circuit from the distribution board or altering fixed wiring, we provide an electrical installation certificate through our NAPIT registration. Like-for-like motor swaps on existing circuits are tested thoroughly to confirm safe operating parameters.

### Can you check the rotation direction of a new three phase motor?

Yes. Verifying shaft rotation is an essential step when commissioning three phase motors. If the motor turns in the wrong direction for the pump, fan or conveyor, we safely re-terminate the incoming phase conductors to achieve correct rotation before the machine runs under load.
