Compressor winding test
what is the proper way to tell if the windings are shorted in a compressor? I am not talking about from winding to ground. I am talking about winding to winding. Can these be checked with a megaohmmeter? I have read that the C-R and C-S winding should add up to the R-S winding resistance. Is this correct? I also know that if the ohm reading between any of the windings is zero then it is definitly shorted but what should most of the readings be?
Thanks

I would tell you but it might kill you so I can't. if your a pro join the pro forums and get your answer there. can't support DIY's.

Type some useless responses like this one until your post count hits 15, then apply for pro membership.

Different responses? Heh, if there is more then one way to check a comp winding resistance i am going to have to learn something new.

So are you a contractor or a HVAC tech???
You are double labling yourself there.....
I agree with clover....if there is another way of checking winding resistance, then its new to me...
I fully support the military and the War on Terrorism.
If you don't know, then don't do. If you don't know and still do, then be prepared to pay someone else a lot to undo what you did and then do it right.
If you do know, then do. But do it right. Otherwise, you may not be doing it long.
