Why allow the agitator pump to single phase any more than necessary. No need to check amps first. With the disconnect off, use your ohmmeter to check the fuses. If good, tug lightly on all connections between the fuses and the motor lead terminals. In this case the lead would have pulled out. Reinsert and tighten all connections and test operation. Then tighten all connections in panel to eliminate call back. Panel never opened while energized, same result. Been doing this for 40 years.

I agree with comments about unnecessary single phasing, when "dead" resistance testing would show local panel wiring continuity better and with less potential damage. Good basic procedure but real world faults can be even worse, a lot worse! Oxidised connections after they are loose (fucked contactor)- should insulation test windings at 500v, not 9v. poor design- should have triple pole device for protection and o/l tripped indicator, etc, etc.! Sorry but theres no substitute for real world...

This is a pretty useful training guide for any beginning electrician.

Too much money for this ,,, you guys need to come down on the price.

How can I get the full version of this program?
@Hugstyggr : You can get the full version at BIN95 dot COM website. hover cursor over 'Training Products' button, click 'Training Software Only' link. The name of the software in this video is "Advanced Industrial Troubleshooting Simulation Training Software", so clicking on that link takes you to software page you requested.

i make $12.60 an hour as a first year apprentice .... it`s not likely that i`ll be able to afford this product until i am certified and no longer need it. you guys should consider reducing the price.

@8ballealey We do. On the order page, you can click to any of the three programs in the seies and order just 1 as a download for only US$139 (About 10 hours of work for you to pay for, at your pay grade. :>) The kicker is no one offers training software as good as this, but the ones closest, sell for thousands. We always sell our training products at the lowest possible cost. "The Best for Less". :>)

The beginning of this video is wrong because it says there is a problem on the 3rd phase when the schematic clearly shows all three phases going to components on the part of the circuit in question to the right. This makes me wonder how many other incorrect methods this program would teach me. If I am wrong please let me know.

@hot567654 Actually the logic is solid, the video is correct. The schematic shows it should receive power, doesn’t mean it is receiving power in the real world. Could be lose wire or blown fuse, etc. Schematics are just a roadmap to how it is wired. Only your voltmeter and/or logic can tell you why the motor is not running, using schematic only as a guide to how it should be wired.

@8ballealey Any helpful tips would be very helpful and very much appreciated. I will be graduating from Wyotech Technical College as an electrician and would like some pointing in the right direction for apprenticeship employment. Any useful info?

@BossRob24 If you want to be an industrial electrician, like in a manufacturing plant, I can tell you any additional PLC training you can get is your most valuable asset towards furthering your career. with the housing market as it is, residential electrician apprentice jobs may be difficult to find. Industrial electrician apprentice is another option to better your odds.
