[Shop-talk] 110 v motor wiring

[alfuller194 at gmail.com]

Hi Tom:

I'm not sure what wiring (if any) the machine came to him with. 

As someone already commented, there may also be a wiring diagram on the motor to help with this, too:

["I'm not familiar with your application but a typical reversable AC motor is controlled by a SPST center-off switch.  The motor has three leads.  One is connected to neutral directly.  The other tow wires have a run capacitor connected between them.  Applying power to one of these two leads will make the motor run in one direction and applying power to the other lead will make the motor run in the opposite direction.  There should be a label on the motor somewhere indicating which wire is which."]

----------------
All the best,

Al Fuller

Al: What’s your definition of “rewiring”? Does it not have any wiring in the first place?
