Good afternoon,
I am mostly finished re-installing the motors and re-wiring the lathe. I want to test that the exciter and MG Unit are functional.
I have the gearbox out so I cannot wire the ESLR into the circuit (I guess I could but the whole thing is apart)
I am using new switches, they are both GE CR104PXG40's, which are dual NO and NC switches.
Switch schematic
Switch terminals
I need someone to review my wiring design for correctness since I always prefer a second set of eyes on these things prior to hitting a button and blowing something up.
Here is the Contactor to Start-Stop switch portion of my 1944 EE's electrical schematic.
Here is my crude schematic, where I am bypassing wire #3's route to the ESLR switch and then onto the Start button.
Anyone have any thoughts on this please reply.
One additional question, Can anyone tell me what the other 2 non-numbered terminals are on each side of the push buttons? (The NO and NC side) One is surely the ground, the other which looks more like a terminal I am not sure of. I bought all these switches New, open box on Ebay (I got 12 of them for $50) so none of them had any instructions and I cannot find a terminal diagram or any wiring information on the internet for them.
