hey guys
ive wired in a 3 phase motor for a work shop and i think ive connected the phases right. It doesnt need a nuteral and the earth is bolted to the metal work. ive switched it on but when it starts the motor runs for about a second then stops and the breaker trips. Its got a 16amp thre phase breaker supplying it. I think it needs a 20amp. Just wanted to make sure incase i damage the equiptment.
The connections ive made are l1 to w2, l2 to u2 and l3 to v2 of the motor and have metal links between w2 and u1, u2 nd v1 and v2 to w1
cheers guys
