Abstract :
A range of tests exist for the characterisation of the surface insulation of motor steels. Attempts to correlate readings from these tests with expected motor performance suggests that, at low interlaminar EMFs, formalised insulation may be of secondary importance. However, coatings continue to play a key role in machine fabrication
