Abstract :
In the past seven years the Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc., has purchased 580 totally enclosed fan-cooled motors with an aggregate´ rating of 52,000 horsepower for major auxiliary application in new plant installation. It has been possible to justify the higher cost of totally enclosed motors on the basis of reduced maintenance and greater reliability.
