Role of Winding Wire in Submersible Motor Failure or Burnout – And How GOLDENGRIP Prevents It


Submersible motors are the heart of water pumping systems used across agriculture, industry, and domestic sectors. Yet one of the most frequent and expensive issues users face is motor burnout.

While dry running, overloading, and electrical faults are common culprits, a key internal factor is often ignored — the quality of the winding wire.

In this blog, we’ll explain how substandard submersible winding wire leads to motor failure, and how GOLDENGRIP, a patented winding wire by VOLTSON INDIA, prevents such accidents — trusted across India and 50+ countries worldwide.

What Causes Submersible Motor Burnout?

Submersible motors can burn out due to:

  • Dry running or low water level
  • Voltage fluctuations and phase loss
  • Prolonged overheating
  • Substandard insulation inside the motor

In nearly 70% of motor failures, it’s not the pump — it’s the winding wire that fails first, triggering insulation breakdown, internal shorts, or electrical faults.

Why Winding Wire Quality is Critical

The submersible winding wire must perform in extreme conditions:

  • Constant water immersion
  • High temperature buildup inside the motor
  • Electrical stress from frequent start-stops or VFDs

If the insulation fails, it causes:

  • Motor winding short-circuit
  • High current draw and overheating
  • Total motor burnout and replacement cost

This is where GOLDENGRIP makes all the difference.
