Steps to determine characteristics needed for finding a replacement A motor is received from a customer with the request that it be replaced. However, it does not have a nameplate. The steps to determine the motor characteristics needed for identifying a replacement will be described here. These same steps can also be used in the case of repair of a motor without a nameplate, so that a new nameplate with key identification characteristics can be made and attached to the repaired motor. The focus of this article will be NEMA or IEC horizontal motors in standard frame sizes.
