Electric motor installation and repair across Wareham
We serve Wareham from our base in Poole.
What happens on the day
We manage motor repair and replacement work methodically from initial inspection to final testing. Each stage focuses on electrical safety, correct rotation and secure connections.
- Safe isolation and initial inspectionWe arrive at the property, locate the motor circuit and isolate the electrical supply using lock off devices. We inspect the nameplate details, starter equipment, mechanical coupling and terminal box layout.
- Electrical testing and diagnosisWe carry out insulation resistance and winding resistance tests to identify burnt windings, internal short circuits or earth faults. We also inspect contactor contacts, overloads and incoming supply voltages.
- Repair or replacementWhere an on site fix is appropriate, we replace worn bearings, faulty capacitors or damaged terminal blocks. For burnt out units, we fit a replacement single or three phase motor and align the drive coupling.
- Functional testing and commissioningWe energise the circuit to confirm correct direction of rotation, measure running currents under load and check operating temperature before refitting all enclosures and guards.

WhatsAppDo you service both single phase and three phase motors in Wareham?
Yes. We work on single phase motors found in domestic pumps, extractors and light commercial machinery, as well as three phase motors powering workshop tools, industrial compressors and commercial plant across Wareham.
What causes an electric motor to keep tripping the breaker?
Frequent tripping often points to degraded winding insulation, an earth fault, worn mechanical bearings causing drag, or a motor drawing excessive current under heavy load. We use insulation and continuity meters to locate the precise electrical cause.
Can burnt out motor windings be rewound on site?
On site work covers component replacements such as capacitors, terminal blocks, overloads and bearings, or fitting a complete replacement motor. If a specialised motor requires a full stator rewind, we remove the motor for rewind workshop processing and reinstall it once ready.
Will I receive an electrical certificate after motor installation?
You receive an electrical certificate whenever the work involves installing a new circuit or notifiable alteration. Like for like motor swaps on an existing circuit are thoroughly tested and recorded to verify circuit safety.
Are you registered to carry out commercial motor electrical work?
MX2 Electrical is fully NAPIT registered and TrustMark accredited, carrying two million pounds in public liability insurance for domestic, commercial and industrial electrical work.
