The 12 lead motor is a very versatile motor and can be connected in numerous ways. It is a dual speed motor and can be wired as star delta. If you are interested, start a Discussion Page and I will see if I can help you.

How is a three phase agricultural motor used when there is no power supply?

With no three phase power supply you can't use a three phase motor of any kind at all!


Will a 3 phase motor work on grounded B phase?

If the motor is connected to an ungrounded delta supply service there will be no effect on the operation of the motor. If the motor is connected to a wye system supply service and the B phase grounds out, the motor's overload protection would take the motor off line from the electrical supply.


What is the Difference between 415v 3 phase motor with a 230v 3 phase supply?

IF YOUR MOTOR HAS 6 LEADS (IN THE TERMINAL BOX) OR 9 OR 12 LEADS THERE IS NO PROBLEM. IF IT IS A BRAND NEW MOTOR THE WINDING CONNECTION DIAGRAM IS NORMALLY INCLUDED IN THE NAMEPLATE OR INSIDE THE TERMNAL BOX - T1,T2,T3,T4,T5,T6 OR U,V,W,X,Y,Z MARKINGS. DUAL VOLTAGE APPLICATION IS A NORMAL OPTION FOR MOTORS. IN THIS CASE CONNECT IT IN WYE (SOME CALLED IT STAR) CONNECTION BY CONNECTING OR COMBINING T4,T5,T6 AS COMMON OR NEUTRAL THEN APPLY 230V 3 PHASE POWER SUPPLY AND CHECK DESIRED ROTATION OR ELSE JUST INTERCHANGE ANY TWO SUPPLY LINE TO CORRECT ROTATION.AnswerJudging from the values of voltage that you quote, you appear to be referring to the UK supply system. In that case, a three-phase supply has a line voltage of 415 V and a phase voltage of 240 V. So you can simply connect the machine's controller directly to the three line conductors. (These days, the nominal voltage for UK supply is now 400/230 V although, in practise, it is still 415/240 V).


How do you wire a three phase motor if none of the wires are idetified?

If it is a three lead 3-phase motor, it is easy: connect the incoming three leads randomly to the three leads on the motor (one to one) so that there are a total of three splices. The motor will run but possibly in reverse If it runs in reverse, switch any two of the three splices ---- If the motor has more than three leads, and they are not marked, it is much more difficult. You will have to have a working knowledge of how to test the leads and compare the results with the information given on the nameplate


Why doesn't a shunt motor operate on a single phase AC supply?

Shunt motors do operate on single phase AC. There are millions, if not billions of them worldwide running right now.Make certain your voltage supply is correct for your motor. Also, make certain you're providing the proper amperage. Make sure it's not a three phase motor. (three phase motors won't operate on single phase power.) If your supply voltage and amp supply is correct and the motor still doesn't run, you've got a bad motor.

How do you make a 30HP three phase motor connection?

From the bottom of the motor contactor's heater block you connect the motor's leads to T1, T2 and T3. If the motor rotates in the wrong direction reverse any two leads on the bottom of the motor's contactor heater block.


How do you start a three phase motor to a single phase power supply?

You don't. A three phase motor will not start unless it is connected to a three phase supply.


What happens when you connect a 110 volt motor to 220 volts?

On a three wire supply system if you connect the two 110V wires together and they are across the phase they will short out and trip the breaker. If the two 110V wires are supplied from across the phase and connected to a motor then the motor will run. If the 110V wires are on the same phase nothing will happen.


Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?

No. That would be a single phase motor.


How do you reverse a direction of a slip ring motor?

It is very simple. Just interchange any two phase wires. i.e. Y and B ( or ) R and B ( or ) R and Y for example Stop the supply. keep R phase wire as it is and disconnect B phase wire and Y phase wire. Connect B phase wire to the Y phase motor stud and Y phase wire to the B phase motor stud. Now give the supply, now motor revolves in opposite direction to the earlier.


How do you change a direction of a motor?

DC motor: Switch your leads. AC single phase motor: Direction cannot be changed. The motor will run the same direction regardless of how your leads are terminated. AC 3 phase motor: Switch any two leads.


You switched leads on your 3phase motor and it did not reverse?

Then it is not a three phase motor.
