I'm trying to connect the start and run caps on a 5HP WEG single phase motor. I need to know the start from run windings. The switch is not hard wired so no help there. Generally speaking is the start winding the heavier or lighter gauge wire...........Bob
 
Got it sorted out. In this case the smaller gauge is the start. Local motor shop was able to tell me T-1 and T-4 were the start winding leads and a continuity test confirmed that. Thanks, guys...............Bob
