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. ## Other services in Canford Heath - [Electrician in Canford Heath](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/electrician-canford-heath): Electrical repairs, inspections and planned installation work across Canford Heath East, Canford Heath West and BH17. - [Electric motor installation and repair (all areas)](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/services/three-phase-motor-installation-repair): MX2 Electrical installs and repairs single and three phase motors in Poole and Dorset.
