Motor Heating Problem

Motor type?

Source voltage?

Data tag info?

Pump type?

Unit history?

What's it pumping?

Specifics please.

Have u used starters in your circuit? If not use it .....probably ur problem s wit inrush current.....if u want complete details then provide us wit complete data ......

Define "heating" first.

When motors run, they get hot. Surface temperature means next to nothing, modern motors generally run too hot to touch comfortably. The only valuable motor temperature information would need to come from internal temperature sensors such as RTDs embedded in the stator. If you are determining that the niotor is "heating" because it is warmer after you start it than it was before hand, that means nothing more than it is working.
