Li-ion batteries do not have memories and don’t require full discharge before charging, To
increase the longevity of Li-ion batteries it is recommended to perform more frequent partial
charges instead of complete discharges. Li-ion batteries actually last longer using partial
discharge cycles and avoiding full discharge cycles. Table I compares the number of
charge/discharge cycles a typical Li-ion battery can deliver at various Depth of Discharge levels
before the battery capacity drops to 70%.
Table 1: The number of discharge cycles depends on many conditions and includes charge voltage,
temperature and load currents.
Li-ion batteries will discharge while setting idol. It is recommended to recharge the ALL-TEST 5 prior
to use if it has been setting idol for an extended period.
Battery voltage is independently monitored and indicated in the main menu, as one of four
possible levels or will show the word “LOW”.
When the charger is plugged into line power the charging circuit automatically resumes charging
when the battery voltage falls below the preset threshold.
The Li-ION batteries have built in over-discharge protection circuits, activated if the cell voltage
falls below a threshold that will disconnect the cell resulting in no power! The solution is to

ALL-TEST PRO® 5 User Manual
The second insulation system is referred to as the ground wall insulation and is located between the
windings and the motor core or stator, this system separates the conductors from the motor core or
frame.
Since current takes the path of least resistance; any weaknesses or faults in the insulation system will
allow flow of the current through the insulations and will allow the current to bypass or “short circuit”
it’s designed flow path. This “short circuiting” will further degrade the operation of the motor and
potentially result in catastrophic failure. Additionally, weaknesses in the ground wall insulation system
will not only degrade motor operation but will lead to increased electrical shock potential to personal or
plant safety.
Insulation failures can be caused by thermal, electrical, mechanical, and environmental stresses as well
as electrical surges, voltage unbalance, incorrect voltage, excessive current or mechanical vibration that
will cause the insulation to wear and breakdown. Other typical insulation failures include excessive
moisture, contamination, and metallic dust. Some faults are due to poor manufacturing or assembly of
the motor.
Electrical Motor Winding Testing has historically been limited to measuring the DC resistance of the
conductors in ohms as well as DC resistance of the insulation in mega-ohms. These tests are very
common due to the availability of electrical test instruments to make these measurements. The purpose
of these instruments has a multitude functions to make generalized electrical measurements and do
provide some valuable information. In many cases faults that affect these measurements have been
identified.
Additional tests are designed to look for any weaknesses in the system by applying high voltage and may
result in complete insulation failure by overstressing it. Many of these tests are destructive and result in
a complete failure of the winding as well as additional damage to the stator or rotor core. Most of these
tests are Go - No Go and will locate weaknesses in the insulation system but fail to provide any indication
of early degradation of the insulation system. However, insulation faults or developing faults that these
measurements cannot identify may be present, or are in the early stages and remain undetected.
For over 30 years the ALL-TEST Pro line of motor testers have been the leaders in the industry in
providing easy to use hand held instruments specifically designed to test motors. that injects a series
low voltage signals into the winding system to exercise the effects of the conductors as well, as the
interaction with the insulation system. These instruments allow the technician to not only identify faults

all faults within the winding or insulation system but also identify small changes that provide early
warning or other changes in the system.
To identify these additional faults within the motor system requires an understanding:
3: the techniques which are available to identify these motor system faults
OPERATION
STATIC TEST
Static tests refer to the de-energized motor winding tests performed with the motor rotor in a stationary
“static” position. The static test performs pre-determined tests on all three windings of a three phase
motor system.
Test Value Static (TVS): The TVS is a single value which is calculated using a proprietary algorithm that
defines the symmetry of the three phase winding system. This value is calculated from measurements
made by injecting a series of low voltage signals, at several different frequencies through the motor
stator windings. The AT 5, chooses the correct calculate the results of these measurements static test
injects low voltage signals into the windings and uses a (TVS). Any change in the winding insulations
systems condition will be reflected in the TVS.
Capacitance (C):
The insulation between the winding conductors and the machines frame form a natural capacitor.
Capacitance is a measure of a systems ability to store an electrical charge. The amount of capacitance in
a system is determined by:
The actual capacitance for each motor is unique to that motor and will differ from any other motor, even
motors of the same size and type. However, when the insulation system becomes coated with foreign
- 15 -
ALL-TEST PRO® 5 User Manual
matter, such as grease, cement dust, carbon dust or any other material, it will affect the dielectric
constant which causes a change in capacitance. By measuring this value on a new motor and trending it
over time provides indication of buildup or contamination, moisture absorption or thermal degradation
of the insulation system.
DF testing is widely used on electrical equipment such as power transformers, circuit breakers,
generators and cables. DF values, trended over time, can help in detecting problems like contamination,
high moisture content and the presence of voids in insulation.
When the insulation system begins to degrade or become contaminated the dielectric constant will
change and cause the DF to increase. The DF is temperature sensitive so reading should always be taken
with the motor at ambient temperature. Measuring DF at too high or too low a temperature can
introduce errors, and the IEEE recommends performing DF tests at or near 68 0F (20 °C).
DYNAMIC TEST
Dynamic tests are patented test methods that refer to the de-energized motor tests which are
performed while the squirrel cage rotor of an induction motor is manually rotated. The dynamic test
sequentially performs tests on all three phases of the stator windings and develops a “Test Signature” of
both the rotor and the stator which is then analyzed to provide immediate results as to the condition of
the rotor and the stator of three phase squirrel cage induction motors. This test eliminates the effects of

induction unbalances that occur with static test methods. t all testing methods possible when the rotor
shaft is accessible for manual rotation, whether by hand or other aid, during testing.
Dynamic tests need to be performed directly at the motor. Testing from the starter or
motor drive can introduce external sources of interference that can adversely influence
the test results.

The term “STATIC” refers to the testing methods possible when the rotor shaft is not accessible for
rotation. I.e. rotor shaft position is fixed.
The term “DYNAMIC” refers to all testing methods possible when the rotor shaft is accessible for manual
rotation, whether by hand or other aid, during testing.
After completing a test “path” the AT33 will automatically “ANALYZE” the test result of each parameter
and presents the result in a user friendly format. Analysis results include one of three possible levels:
“OK”, “WARN” or “BAD” based on the preset rules. In case only “STATIC” testing was possible the user
has the option to compare the new results with already preloaded or saved record in the memory, or to
save the current test as a baseline reference test.
Saved test records can be uploaded to the optional PC software for further analysis, trending, data base
management and report generation.
“Test Value Static / Reference Value Static” (patented): The Static Motor test uses ALL-TEST Pro’s
proven testing methods to measure the windings in all three phases at various pre-determined test
frequencies. The results of these tests are used to calculate the Test Value Static (TVS). The TVS is a
single value that defines the condition of the windings using ALL-TEST Pro’s patented proprietary
algorithms. Any change in the condition of the windings insulation system will be reflected in the TVS.

nature of the DF & C test the AT33 connection is designed to form a shielded test setup together with
the motor object under test.
All DF & Capacitance testing should be performed directly on the motor terminals as instructed and
pictured in this Manual.
Only the supplied (shielded) test leads and clips should be used. The use of any additional cable(s)
between the test clips and motor terminals can introduce hum and/or other interference that can result
in erratic readings for DF and C. In addition, longer cable lengths can also add the influence of the cable
itself.
In order to get the highest possible accuracy for the DF test, the instrument should be allowed to have a
warm up time of approximately 10 seconds after powering “ON” (this allows time for the DC and offset
levels to stabilize). Note that the specification for DF and Capacitance is based on battery powered
operation. The USB communication cable cannot be connected to a computer during the Contamination
test described below.

DC Motor Testing
DC Motor de-energized testing provides specific challenges since multiple duplicate coils are not easily
accessible for comparative analysis. Additionally DC motors offer a variety of winding configurations,
depending on the type of DC Motor.
DC motors have several different and multiple coils. The motor tests made with the AT 5 are done with
all of the motor windings connected. If a change is noted it is then necessary to individually measure the
coils to identify the faulty coil or coils.
All analysis for DC motors must be done manually. More detailed analysis procedures are available in the
ALL-TEST Pro MCA analysis manual.
1) Baseline: Develop a baseline Motor data set from a Motor in Good Condition and
compare future motor test data.
2) Trend: Trend 2 or more motor data sets taken at different time intervals, looking for
changes in the winding condition over time.
3) Comparison: establish an average of several like motors and filed windings and
compare the current measurements with the average for that coil. It is necessary to
compare shunt coils with shunt coils, series coils with series coils. Interpole coils with
interpole coils.
- 47 -
ALL-TEST PRO® 5 User Manual
4) If a significant change has occurred, disconnect the motor and test at the motor
directly
5) Compare the current motor data taken directly at the motor to the baseline motor
data previously taken directly at the motor.
6) If a change from the baseline motor data, test each coil individually and compare the
data from like coils to all of the other like coils. All of the data from like coils should be
the same. Any coil that deviates from the average values of the other coils should be
suspect.
- 48 -
ALL-TEST PRO® 5 User Manual
4) Compare the current motor data taken directly at the motor to the average set taken
directly at the motor for those machines.
5) If a change from the average motor data, test each coil individually and compare the
data from like coils to all of the other like coils. All of the data from like coils should be
the same. Any coil that deviates from the average values of the other coils should be
suspect.
To ease the process for DC motor testing the AT5 provides the ability to test several different DC motor
types. Additionally Dc motors can be tested remotely from the DC drive or directly at the motor.
If a change in the motors condition is “detected” during the motor test it is then recommended to test
the motor directly at the motor.
However, since the DF and capacitance measurements must be taken directly at the motor these tests
aren’t available from the DC Drive. The following configurations for testing from the DC drive are
available. The AT 5 offers the following configurations for testing DC from the DC Motor drive.
NOTE: One of the most common maintenance problems associated with DC motors, is carbon build up in
the armature windings, MCA readings identify these problems with inconsistent results in back to back
measurements. It is good practice to always remeasure any readings that include the armature coils. If
back to back measurements are made and the MCA readings change between tests, then carbon build-
up is usually the cause.

DC Series Motors
DC series motors have the field and armature windings
connected in series. When testing DC series motors from
the drive both the field and armature windings are tested
at the same time.
The armature leads are normally labeled A1 & A2; the field leads are normally labeled S1 & S2. For the
windings to be in series, A2 & S1, or S2 & A1 are connected. Test the windings by connecting the AT 5
test leads to free- end on the armature lead and the free end of the field coil.
Since the armature and field windings are connected in series it is necessary to only measure the IRG
measurement 1 time from the DC motor drive.
The armature leads are normally labeled A1 & A2, the filed leads are
normally labeled F1 & F2. It is recommended to take the field windings
first and the armature winding second. Note: Always remeasure the armature windings to look for
carbon build up. Test the windings by connecting to F1 & F1, for DC1, then A1 & A2 for DC2.
Since the Field leads are parallel to the armature windings, separate IRG to ground are taken from the
field coils to Ground or the frame and the armature coils to ground or frame. In the AT5 IRG1 are the
measurements for the field windings and IRG2 are for the armature windings.

One of the enhanced features of the ALL-test Pro 5 is the ablity quickly collect motor data
from number a of motors. The route mode optimizes the AT5 for the predictive maintenace
user. Predetermined routes are created in the EMCAT 5 software and then downloaded into the ALL-
TEST 5. Each route can contain 100 Tests. The AT 5 will only hold 1 route at a time.
The route mode can be used to test a batch of new motors for incoming inspections, motors on the store
room shelf, all motors due at the same time intervals, all motors located in the same location in the plant
or any other groupings of motors in the plant.
Note: During the route mode DF & Capacitance testing should be performed directly on the motor

NOTE: When performing a Dynamic test it is important to watch the AT 5 display screen while
turning the motor shaft. The bar will move horizontally across the screen while you are
rotating the motor shaft. If little (or no) movement occurs then it is possible it will not
sequence to the next phase during the dynamic test. You can force the AT 5 to sequence to
the next phase by pressing OK. This does not mean that the motor is necessarily bad, but
instead may relate to the design/construction of the motor.
