I have a motor needs wiring up, was wondering if anyone can confirm that what I am going to do seems correct.
motor in question is a two speed three phase 1.5HP motor, (.375HP at low speed). Made by GE, Model 5K204D1814 for what it's worth. it has 6 wires coming out. some joker took off the plate with the wiring diagram, so I am not 100% certain how to do this up.
My understanding is that if you wire L1,2,3 to the main power, that it will turn at slow speed, and that if you short L1,2,3 together and wire L4,5,6 to the main power that it will turn at high speed. can anyone confirm if this is indeed correct? Don't want to hook it up and burn something out by accident.
thanks,
jon
