By Craig Miles

Craig Miles talks about industrial & marine electrical systems & electronics technology combined with wireless RF Radio communications, and how they link to Industry 4.0 & IIOT. This is unless of course, he goes off-topic off course...which can and does happen sometimes, so inventive ideas may also be discussed. Craig has worked in embedded electronics development, in the defence space satellite industry, as well as marine engineering training.

Electric Morris Minor

This podcast is about my design suggestions for an electric Morris Minor.

There have already been some prototype electric Morris Minor conversions already, which I will discuss.

In addition, I have designed alternative ways to successfully convert classic cars such as the Morris Minor.

History & background

The Morris Minor is a British car designed by Sir Alec Issigonis, that was launched in 1948.

The Morris Minor originally was produced with a 918cc Side valve Petrol engine, but this was replaced in the early 1950s by an Overhead Valve (OHV) engine.

The OHV engine was improved and its size increased during the remainder of its production. and the later models were 1098cc in cubic capacity size.

Preventative Maintenance For Electric Motors

Preventive maintenance programs are the key to the reliable, long-life operation of electric motors.
Whilst AC Induction Motors are particularly reliable in service, almost all electrical equipment requires periodic planned inspection and maintenance. Planned preventative maintenance ensures electrical motors, and starters are kept in good working condition at all times. This is critical for businesses that rely on electric motors. A scheduled routine of motor inspection should be carried out throughout the motor’s life. The periodic motor inspection helps prevent serious damage to motors by locating potential problems early.

Induction Motor Servicing Tips For Ships and Factories

Induction Motor Servicing.

Induction motors are used widely in factories and on ships.

They are very reliable machines, but faults can develop over time.

That is why you need Induction motor servicing to be carried out.

Potential faults include burnt out Stator Windings, worn bearings, and water damage which causes low insulation resistance.

This podcast covers tips on Induction motor servicing.
