How are we as techs supposed to understand the specifications we see on a split-phase motor's label? What's the difference between a motor's output power and its input power, and which of those specs is given on the label? What do acronyms like FLA and LRA mean? All that and more covered in this short video on motor specifications.

This is just a short excerpt from the great technical discussions we have every other Saturday during our Live Dojo Workshops. If you're not joining us for these, you're missing out big time! Check out the video below to get a taste of the great shop talk we have there.

If you're a tech member and you want to join in the fun, sign up for the next Live Dojo -- there's one happening tomorrow morning! And there will be more after that, every other Saturday. Keep an eye on the Appliantology calendar and sign up for our newsletter so you don't miss 'em.
