Proper motor Application engineering can reduce costs and improve reliability

Maximum reliability at minimum cost can be obtained in a power plant by high-quality application engineering. This includes adequate record keeping; proper knowledge of ambient conditions and operating practices; thorough study of load characteristics, power supply, transferring and starting facilities; and adequate specifications which do not impose costly nonstandard requirements
