Electric motor installation and repair across Canford Heath
We serve Canford Heath from our base in Poole.
What happens on the day
Every motor replacement or diagnostic visit follows a structured sequence to ensure electrical safety and correct mechanical operation.
- Safe electrical isolationWe begin by locating the circuit source, locking off the electrical supply and confirming dead using approved voltage testers before opening terminal boxes or control gear.
- Motor inspection and electrical testingWe inspect nameplate ratings, assess bearing play, test winding resistance and examine the starter, thermal overload and adjacent cabling to pinpoint the failure.
- Component replacement or repairWe remove damaged units, align new single or three phase motors, secure mechanical couplings, make sound terminations and adjust protective devices to the motor full load current.
- Operational tests and safety checksWe energise the circuit, verify that shaft rotation matches machine requirements, measure operating current under load, check running temperature and issue installation certification when required.

WhatsAppDo you work on three phase motors in Canford Heath?
Yes. We install, wire and repair both single phase and three phase motors for residential systems, retail outlets, workshops and commercial premises across the area.
How do I know whether my motor needs repairing or replacing?
We test winding insulation resistance, check internal bearings and examine the starter and supply circuitry. If the motor has suffered internal electrical breakdown, replacing it with a new matching unit is often the most economical approach, but we outline options before proceeding.
Can you rewire or replace motor starters and isolators?
Yes. We replace worn contactors, wire direct-on-line and star-delta starters, set thermal overloads to protect motor windings, and install rotary isolators adjacent to motors for safe maintenance.
Will I receive an electrical certificate for motor work?
When a new circuit or notifiable alteration is installed to feed a motor, we test the system and provide certification through our NAPIT registration. Direct like-for-like component swaps are tested and recorded to verify circuit safety.
Can burnt-out motors be rewound on site?
Rewinding motor stators requires dedicated workshop machinery and oven baking facilities, so it cannot be completed on site. Where an unusual motor justifies a specialist rewind rather than replacement, we can disconnect and remove the motor, then reinstall and test it upon return.
