I have a 460v single phase condenser fan motor and not sure how to check this motor with meter to find if its bad. I usually work with three phase motor but this emerson is a single phase motor.

Your motor runs on freon?

I would say hire an electrician as well if I didn't know the answer. Sorry for the hard question. Two wires to cap and one hot wire. But motor was burned so no need to test.

I would disconnect the capacitor and check the motor for an open or a grounded winding.

Freon? That's like calling all colas coke or all shows nike. Freon is just a trade name from Honeywell. Now if you said refrigerant I would say yep. It's clown hour. Love it.

No readings to shell of motor and no resistances on any if the leads
