Hello everyone,I need help wiring up a pump motor that I just got to replace an old one. It is an Ironhorse Rolled Steel general purpose motor rated at 1 HP. It is dual voltage (115/230) but will be running it at 115V. It uses a T1-T8 system the colors are:Blue T1White T2Orange T3Yellow T4Black T5Red T8The wiring scheme for low voltage is:Line 1: Blue orange redLine 2: White Yellow blackHow do I hook this up to an AC power chord that has White, Black, Green wires?
Every dual-voltage motor I've ever seen has the wiring diagram right on the data plate.
I would take this to mean that line 1 is the black wire,and line 2 is the white wire. The green ground goes to the motor housing. the hot wire (black) is called L1.
you take the blue,orange,red wire and twist them together [after you strip some insulation off, ] they go to the black wire on the power cord, the white yellow, black wires go to the white wire on the power cord green goes to the motor housing,
