[QUOTE="Redfish Hunter, post: 1173817, member: 28773"] The procedure that I outlined in post #5 is the one we use for 480 volt 3 phase motors. I have used this for motors pulling over 300 amps and have never had a failure. The main difference would be that if possible rather than the initial wrap being a "back wrap" of 33, I would use another 3M tape called Varnished Cambric. That would be my initial protection, then the stretched 130C, then a final covering of 33. This will withstand any reasonable operating condition. Temperature, water, vibration, and the inevitable wear caused by rubbing against the metal box are all defeated by this method. If it can survive the hostile environments in the acid plants, refrigerant plants, vinyl plants, and refineries where I make my wife's money, it will certainly survive anything the FJR can send it.
