  • Abstract
    When a motor fails, the user or owner faces three choices: to rewind to the same efficiency; to rewind to a higher efficiency; or to replace it with a new motor of either a standard or premium efficiency design. This paper covers the advantages and disadvantages of each approach and the precautions that must be taken to avoid increasing motor losses if rewinding is chosen
