Identifying 9 unmarked leads of three-phase motors

  • April 2011
  • Number of views: 7791
  • Article rating: 5.0

Tom Bishop, P.E.
EASA Senior Technical Support Specialist

The markings on the external leads of a motor sometimes become defaced or are removed, which makes it neces­sary to identify and mark them before the motor can be properly connected to the line. This article will address lead identification of three-phase motors with 9 leads, based on the premise that none of the leads are marked. If some of the leads are marked, the process is the same, but may require fewer steps. Note: See the May 2008 issue of Currents for the article “Identifying Unmarked Leads Of 6-Lead Motors With 1 Or 2 Windings.”
