As tempting as it may be to change a winding to reduce the time to rewind and connect it, one shortcut that should never be done is to change a winding to a consequent-pole winding with odd (uneven) coil grouping. The poor pole-phase-group spacing is likely to result in a winding that draws high magnetizing current and has sub-optimal performance.

The two primary methods of sharing information with local news organizations are media advisories and press releases. While press releases detail news about the company, such as a product release, media advisories invite the media to a future company event. At the very top, it is titled “MEDIA ADVISORY” and displays contact information and the words “FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.” Below that is a headline with the event name. A media advisory should be written as a quick newsflash that focuses on the “5Ws” (Who, What, When, Where and Why) in an easy-to-read format. It might also include information on where to park, where to enter the building and whether refreshments will be served. Media advisories should be sent to newsrooms at least five days before the event and again the day before the event.
