The Snell Group

The Snell Group can conduct testing of your electric motors and their associated circuitry as part of a comprehensive electric motor testing (EMT) and management program.

We can perform EMT inspections, whether online (energized) or offline (de-energized) to provide early detection of defects or faults in electrical distribution, motor circuits, motors and motor drive trains. Snell EMT consultants can also provide detailed reports with failure mode identification and recommended follow-up such as:

• Corrective action
  
• Correlative testing
• Changes in maintenance and/or operational practices
• System configuration changes

Whether for short-term projects or on a full-time basis, our electric motor testing consultants can integrate seamlessly with your existing condition monitoring program. Through our discovery process an appropriate testing frequency for our electric motor testing inspection services will be recommended based on industry best practices and your specific requirements. For large facilities, or sites with many critical motors, it may be appropriate to staff a full-time Snell EMT consultant who works side-by-side providing EMT inspection services for your PdM program throughout the year.

With a strong emphasis on safety, our EMT consultants have NFPA 70E training and meet our high standards for technology-specific professional development. Please contact us today to learn how our electric motor testing inspections can get a higher return on investment in your motor program.

The Snell Group also has a wide range of electric motor testing training courses, as well as EMT consulting services that allow your facility to better integrate EMT/MCA into your overall motor and PdM programs.
