What great site! I have a decent [?] meter but I suspect not in keeping with Marv's description.
Solution sounds like to check the coils as they are now; spool them being fed over my measuring machine to know length, and label the resistance results/ length. That should sort failed conductors immediately, and comparing the rest ought to be in a very narrow range. They were only a 110v lighting circuit, 15 60w lamps.
If not good, oh well. Have 13,000 feet of yellow/ brown/ orange for 440v, green/ white/ black for 110v, forgot what is on hand to do 240v, only 2 machines get that.
Again, great site, but its due to the participating members. I appreciate every morsel dispensed of heads up.
