still apply?  Maybe load it with a few hundred ohms to damp it a bit?


OHH! That is a bit different, and of course you have to use the AC scale of the meter, but yes, KV definitely still applies. Just measure the voltage on any 2 winding terminals. By comparing frequency against the RPM, you can figure out how many poles the motor has. No need for a load, the winding resistance of such a motor is going to be really low, so the resistor will have no effect.
