Someone from another forum was asking about ways to test a pump motor to verify it is functional. I told him that I wasn't a tech and pointed them to this forum. They have a used tub and don't know if it is functional but wanted to understand if there was a way to test before dumping the $400-$700 into the 220volt wiring they would need to support it...

Bunka,

It's called a meggar reading, it will test the winding of the motors resistance. Any electrical motor shop should be ab;le to perform the test
