  • Page 3 BASIC ELECTRICAL TERMINOLOGY In any discussion of electricity, there are three basic terms you will need to understand. CURRENT VOLTAGE RESISTANCE CURRENT: Current is the movement of the electrical charge. Current Flows through the wires from the power source to the load. Current is measured in AMPERES (AMPS, A or I).
  • Page 4 BASIC ELECTRICAL TERMINOLOGY RESISTANCE: Resistance is anything that causes an opposition to the fl ow of current in a circuit. Resistance is used to control the amount of voltage and/or amperage in a circuit. Resistance is measured in OHMS - Ω. See Figure 3. A common component check would be motor and clutch field windings.
  • Page 5 CONTINUITY TESTING Checking “continuity” is one of the most common tests in electrical troubleshooting. Continuity is the ability of a wire or electrical component to conduct current. When you use a continuity tester, you connect a circuit (the continuity tester) that you know works, to a wire or a component that may or may not work.
  • Page 6 WIRE CONTINUITY TESTING Continuity testing will “NOT” fi nd wire fragmentation!! Example: 120 Vac input static voltage and drops to 119Vac load voltage. A good piece of wire will carry line and load voltage. Damaged / Fragmented Wire Damaged / Fragmented Wire Pinched Wire 120 Vac input static voltage and drops to 76Vac load voltage.
  • Page 7 GROUND TESTING Improper installation or alteration of grounding plug could results in risk of electric shock, fire or explosion that could cause serious injury or death. The other function of the grounding plug is to protect the control board from static build up. If the plug is missing this could cause permanent damage to the control board.
  • Page 8 CAPACITOR TESTING: A capacitor is an electrical component that stores electricity. Capacitors are usually used to help start a motor or make a motor run more eff The following instructions can be used to test any capacitor. WARNING! A CAPACITOR CAN SHOCK YOU EVEN WHEN A MACHINE IS UNPLUGGED. NEVER TOUCH CAPACITOR TERMINALS WITH YOUR FINGERS.
  • Page 9 RECTIFIER (See Fig. 1) Now we come to the most popular application of the diode: rectifcation. Simply rectifcation is the conversion of alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). This almost always involves the use of some device that only allows one-way fl ow of electrons. As we have seen, this is exactly what a diode does.
