It seems to me you also had to pass a hack saw blade over the armature toDon Kelly said:If I recall correctly, it simply applies an AC magneitc field to the
armature being tested. This induces voltages in the windings and if any
windings are shorted, there will be currents flowing and the corresponding
forces make the armature vibrate or "growl".
it's been a long time so don't take this as gospel.

Generally motor shops induce a magnetic field in the rotor and wrap it withLouis said:Thanks to all who provided data, and URLs.
My wife (who has no technical expertise) asked what a Growler was, and why
I needed the information. She then suggested I use the browser search
function for info. I explained I had, but the search had produced info
about music groups, and other info of no interest to me. She then asked
what it tested. She suggested including that in the search string.
"Armature Growler" produced quite a large number of hits.
I guess a clear thinking logical mind wins over a technical one, at least
in this case.
Some of the links indicated that instrumentation used by motor shops today
have all but eliminated the need for devices such as the growler.
Can any motor shop people, or other enlightened individuals explain what
instrumentation they were referring to?
Thank you.
