Locked Rotor Voltage (L.R.V.) Test
Locked rotor voltage (L.R.V.) is the actual voltage available
at the compressor under a stalled condition.
Single Phase Connections
Disconnect power from unit. Using a voltmeter, attach one
lead of the meter to the run “R” terminal on the compressor
and the other lead to the common “C” terminal of the com-
pressor. Restore power to unit.
Determine L.R.V.
Start the compressor with the volt meter attached; then stop
the unit. Attempt to restart the compressor within a couple
of seconds and immediately read the voltage on the meter.
The compressor under these conditions will not start and will
usually kick out on overload within a few seconds since the
pressures in the system will not have had time to equalize.
Voltage should be at or above minimum voltage of 197 VAC,

for cause of inadequate power supply; i.e., incorrect wire
size, loose electrical connections, etc.
COMPRESSOR CHECKS
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
WARNING
Turn off electric power before service or
installation. Extreme care must be used, if it
becomes necessary to work on equipment with
power applied.
Failure to do so could result in serious injury or
death.
Amperage (L.R.A.) Test
The running amperage of the compressor is the most impor-
tant of these readings. A running amperage higher than that
indicated in the performance data indicates that a problem
exists mechanically or electrically.

for running amperage. The L.R.A. can also be found on the
rating plate.
Select the proper amperage scale and clamp the meter
probe around the wire to the “C” terminal of the compres-
sor. Turn on the unit and read the running amperage on
the meter,IWKHFRPSUHVVRUGRHVQRWVWDUWWKHUHDGLQJ
will indicate the locked rotor amperage (L.R.A.).
External Overload
The compressor is equipped with an external overload
which senses both motor amperage and winding tem-
perature. High motor temperature or amperage heats the
overload causing it to open, breaking the common circuit
within the compressor.
Heat generated within the compressor shell, usually due
to recycling of the motorLVVORZWRGLVVLSDWH,WPD\WDNH
anywhere from a few minutes to several hours for the
overload to reset.
Checking the External Overload
With power off, remove the leads from compressor termi-

do not have continuity; this indicates that the overload is
open and must be replaced.
Certain unit components operate at
temperatures hot enough to cause burns.
Proper safety procedures must be followed,
and proper protective clothing must be
worn.
Failure to follow this warning could result
in moderate to serious injury.
