Will splicing a 3 wire 240 volt compressor with a 4 wire 240 volt male end damage compressor motor?

It could if you don't get the terminals and motor wires on the correct terminals.


How do you wire a sanborn 220 compressor?

To wire a Sanborn 220 compressor, first, make sure it is unplugged. Next, connect the wires from the compressor motor to the pressure switch according to the wiring diagram provided by Sanborn. Finally, connect the power cord to the pressure switch and ensure all connections are secure before plugging it in and testing the compressor. It's important to follow all safety precautions and refer to the user manual for specific instructions.


How do you hook up 3 phase to a 10 hp compressor?

First you have to have three phase power coming in. 3 phase are three hot wires working together on a syne wave. If you have 3 phase coming in, hook the three hot wires into the compresser, if it runs backwards, trade places with two of the wire and let the third one alone and you should be running.


How do you wire an older 2 wire 30 amp compressor to a 3 wire 30 amp dryer plug?

I am guessing that the dryer is 220-240 VAC as is the compressor. I also assume that the third wire on the dryer is a ground. You need to make sure that the metal chassis on the compressor is not connected to the two wires. You then need to create a covered junction box where you have the two existing wires and a ground wire that you connect to the compressor metal chassis with a screw type connector. Ground wire should be 10 AWG. Now you have three wires. Connect the two hot wires of supply to two original wires on compressor and ground wire to the chassis ground.


What does an electromagnet do when it is connected with wires and a motor?

When an electromagnet is connected to wires and a motor, the electromagnet generates a magnetic field when current flows through the wires. This magnetic field interacts with other magnetic fields in the motor, causing the motor to either spin or generate motion depending on the design and configuration.

There is no power go to the motor. Test the wires to see if there is power to it.


Why would a 2001 Ford Explorer AC blow hot air but full of freon?

Mabe your compressor is not kicking on for some reason. Check to see if the front of your compressor starts spinning when you turn it on. If it don't check to see if there is power to the wires that go to your compressor. If there is power you have a bad compressor. If there is not check the fuses or relays.

Does the three wire live neutral and earth that run from the aircond unit to the compressor carry current?

All of the 3 wires connected to the compressor motor terminals will carry current while it is running. Depending on the method the mfr uses to cycle the compressor (breaking one or both power legs) some of the wires may remain `Hot` while it is off. A wiring diagram specific to the unit in question will answer that. By earth I assume you mean the ground or green wire, that wire is never intentionally powered.


The window on your 1991 240sx will not go up nor down is it the window switch or the motor I dont hear any noise coming from neither of them.?

early nissans have a window amplifier its located on the driver door, its what the switch plugs in to, it looks like a little box. very common problem is they burn out, you wont have any power to the motor and will probably think the motor is bad. check the motor first by putting power and ground to it, (two wires coming from window motor) it doesn't matter which one gets power cause one way up, switch wires and you get down. check motor first they are built well and usually the amplifier wears out first


How can I change the condenser fan motor?

To change the condenser fan motor, first turn off the power to the unit. Remove the fan blade and motor from the unit. Disconnect the electrical wires and remove the old motor. Install the new motor, reconnect the wires, and reattach the fan blade. Finally, turn the power back on and test the unit to ensure it is working properly.
