To check phase rotation using a voltmeter, you can measure the voltage between two phases of a three-phase system. First, connect the voltmeter leads to two of the phases, noting the voltage reading. Then, repeat the measurement for the other combinations of phases. By comparing the voltage readings and their phase relationships, you can determine the phase rotation; a consistent increase or decrease in voltage readings indicates the correct phase sequence.
To check if a transformer has a vector group of DZn10, you'll need to measure the phase relationships between the primary and secondary windings. This can be done using a phase rotation meter or a voltmeter and an ammeter to analyze the phase angles. Specifically, verify that the secondary winding is connected in a zigzag configuration and that the neutral point is grounded, confirming the DZn designation. Additionally, check the vector group’s characteristics to ensure it matches the expected phase shift and connections.
Any standard voltmeter but however the voltage to be measured must be stepped down to a safe value using a Potential transformer.
To ensure that phased conductors are not crossed, one common test is the phase identification test, where each conductor is systematically energized to verify its corresponding phase. Additionally, continuity testing can be performed to check that there are no unintended connections between conductors. Insulation resistance testing can also help identify issues by measuring the resistance between conductors and ensuring they are properly isolated. Finally, using a phase rotation meter can confirm that the phases are correctly aligned and not crossed.
by using dc volts across pairs and with an analog meter to check the deflection of the needle to determine if they are in phase
To check the motor rotation, first ensure the motor is powered off for safety. Then, manually rotate the motor shaft to feel for any resistance or unusual noises, indicating potential issues. If the motor is powered on, observe the direction of the shaft's rotation, verifying it matches the intended direction specified in the motor's documentation. Additionally, using a tachometer can help measure the RPM and confirm proper operation.

Using a properly rated voltmeter and following all safety precautions, check from phase to phase on each phase on the secondary side. phase 1-2 then 2-3 then 1-3 and they should all be within a few volts of each other.
The formula you are looking for is - phase voltage/1.73 = phase to neutral voltage.
Neutral will be closest to protective earth ground. In the US, neutral is white. we can check using tester ,when tester is connected to phase only lamp of the tester glows and when it is connected to the nuetral the lamp does not glow. another method is, connect the voltmeter to any one of the terminal and ground if the voltmeter shows 110v 0r 220v then it is phase and the other is nuetral.
First check and see if there's any voltage on the cable by using a voltmeter and then use an ohmeter to check for resistance to ground.

Use a voltmeter with a high input impedance and measure at the source the voltage.

If someone wants to check the voltage from SMPS even without it being connected to the motherboard that can be done by using a voltmeter. This if connected carefully can indicate the voltage.

The disadvantage of using a voltmeter and ammeter on circuit measurements is that internal burden in both these instruments can affect circuit operation so much as to make a measurement useless.
