We verify the installation requirements before starting any electrical tasks. ### Isolation and nameplate inspection We begin by locating the motor isolator and safely locking off the electrical power. We then inspect the motor nameplate ratings, phase connections, starter type and mechanical coupling to ensure the circuit is fully understood. ### On-site repair or replacement Depending on the fault found, we either repair the motor terminals, replace worn bearings and check capacitor units, or disconnect the burnt-out motor and mount a brand new single or three-phase replacement unit. ### Direction testing and commissioning Once wired, we restore power, check phase rotation to ensure the motor spins in the right direction, and measure running current against nameplate full load amperes. Covers and guards are securely refitted before handover. ## Frequently asked questions about motor repairs ### Do you repair both single-phase and three-phase motors in Westbourne? Yes. We work on single-phase motors used in domestic extractor fans, sump pumps and garage doors, as well as three-phase motors powering commercial machinery, air compressors and industrial ventilation across Westbourne. ### How is motor repair and installation priced? Work is charged at our standard hourly labour rate for investigation and installation time. If a replacement motor, contactor, overload relay or new cable run is required, the price of materials is confirmed before installation begins. ### Can a burnt-out motor be repaired on site? We handle on-site electrical repairs including terminal box rewiring, capacitor replacements, bearing checks and starter repairs. If a motor has suffered internal winding burnout requiring specialist rewinding at a workshop, we disconnect and remove the unit for you. ### Will I receive an electrical certificate after a motor is fitted? Yes, when a new dedicated circuit is installed or the installation requires notification under building regulations, formal certification is issued through our NAPIT registration. Like-for-like motor replacements are tested and documented on your invoice. ### Can you assist with motors that frequently trip the consumer unit? Yes. An electric motor that trips the circuit breaker or RCD often suffers from degraded winding insulation, moisture ingress or mechanical jamming. We perform insulation resistance and continuity testing to identify the exact cause. ## Other services in Westbourne - [Electrician in Westbourne](https://mx2-electrical-ltd.co.uk/electrician-westbourne): Domestic and suitable commercial electrical repairs, testing and planned work across Westbourne, Alum Chine, West Cliff and BH4. - [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.
