Discuss trying to understand 3 phase motor/capacitor installation in the DIY Electrical Advice area at ElectriciansForums.net
As others have said,the 3 phase motor must be connected in delta to work off 240v.The capacitor produces another phase.Live and neutral go to 2 motor terminals and the capacitor goes between live and the other motor terminal.Nowhere near as efficient as running on true 3 phase.is thaT GOOD?
thats interesting, am starting to see the complexity of it. are the data plates the ones inside the plastic box, i couldn't see the mention of "240v"I think it would be an idea to have a look at the other data plates which are partly shown in the photos of the contactor terminations.
