Electric motors frequently have space heaters (or strip heaters) installed to prevent moisture condensation in the motor during times the motor is not running.
Many motor manufacturers use metallic or ceramic cartridge heaters for this purpose. Because such heaters are small, they must operate at a high surface watt density and consequently high temperature. The high temperature causes rapid heater failure, often within the first year.
