Abstract :
Placing major pieces of electrical equipment in service is aided by a systematic approach to selection, specification, inspection, shipment, storage, check-out, and run-in. This paper describes the detailed planning that helped assure a successful start-up of a large electrical motor. Although a specific installation is described, it will be found that many of the procedures will be generally applicable.
