Greetings All.
Once again I am thrown into new territory. I have been asked to assist troubleshooting a machine that has a 480V, 3-Ph 1.5Kw Hauptantrieb motor that causes the circuit breaker to pop (how frequently, I don't know). I have very little to go on at this point, but the limited documentation available makes reference to the motor being 50Hz.
Before I go pulling my resources together and trudging to another building, I thought an insightful bit of input from one of y'all might get me off on the right foot, or at least keep me off a rabbit trail or two.
What affect does operating a 50Hz motor with 60Hz power have on the motor itself?
