Task C-9 Services prime movers

Task Descriptor

Prime movers are the driver of the mechanical system and include equipment such as electric motors, turbines (for example wind, water, gas or steam) and internal combustion engines. They must be installed correctly and maintained properly to provide optimum power and torque to the driven systems and to ensure reliability of the prime mover. Servicing includes installing, diagnosing, maintaining and repairing.
