I've worked at a car wash for the last 7 years as just an employee. Maintenance. That was a lot of learning. I still have a lot to learn. 2021 is when I got my own car wash. Electrical scares the hell out of me. I think I'm going to blow up the motor or shock the shit out of myself. I use these tutorials all the time. Not just This guy but many other. Very useful information on KZitem. Saved me a lot of money so far in plumbing and electrical work.

😲 this video very quickly and concisely explained the meaning of the wiring diagram, which has been an enigma to me and something of a tremor. My specific situation is that I've completed a full restoration of a 1940's Walker-Turner motor for my own channel, but it did not have a wiring diagram. I've checked continuity to determine lead pairs, and checked the insulation residence, which is 💯, but I'd like to make my own writing diagram for it, since it did not come with one. As part of the restoration, I soldered new leads to the winding coils as well, so it would be awesome to make a wiring diagram for 110/220 as well as reversing the rotation. Could the info in this video help me figure all that out once I set my hands to it, or could you point me in the right direction? The video was very helpful as it is, I just need to go a couple steps further since I'm starting without a diagram. As an FYI, I do have a diagram from a similar make and model motor, but it's a couple years before and it has a cool separate box plate that you open up to reverse direction, where mine does not. Mine is more like the one in the video here with a single start capacitor. Thanks to anyone who replies reasonably 😎

Thanks for the video. It is easy if you have that diagram & understand those dots and the low vs high. My motor is from a furnace blower and labeled: 200-230V, single phase, 60hz, 1/4 hp. There is a capacitor mounted on the side of the squirrel cage housing holding the motor. It has two posts with two black wires on one post and a yellow on the other. One of those black wires goes to the old connector which mated with a plug on the furnace wiring and the other off that connector disappears into the motor casing. The yellow disappears into the motor, as well. I am betting those go to the start winding. Two other wires come off that connector - a red & a light blue - and they connect to terminals which seem to be for two speeds (a diagram says high/med/low, but only two are in use). Now for L1 and L2 in your example...my my question is where do I connect them? My power source is a 240 circuit. The 20 breakers are ganged together in the panel, so one is fed from one of the phases coming into the house and the second is fed from the other line. The two wires (red & black) from those two breakers go to a 20 A socket in the wall. Just the bare copper ground and those two wires are connected to the outlet on the wall - no neutral is attached to the outlet left coiled and capped in the box). So, if I prepare a plug to match that outlet, the other end of the cable will have what I assume are two separate 110 lines (L1 & L2?) Would it make sense to attach one of those to black lead going to the capacitor and the other to either of the Red or Light Blue wires, depending on the blower speed desired? What is confusing is how can a circuit be completed through either winding if there is no neutral anywhere? The ground wire wouldn't provide that completed circuit, right (there is a green with that is fastened to the motor casing and disappears into the motor, which is where I intended to connect the ground from the outlet...) Since your video didn't fill in details about the source for L1, I assumed that was your typical 110 cable which used the neutral to complete the circuit using one of the L connections. You didn't get into the High Voltage connections and how the power source might have been different. Can you fill in my missing pieces for the 240 V connections? Cheers!
@haweater1555

The "neutral" is not treated as "grounded". Both lines are insulated from ground in the motor and you can hook either 120V wires (usually black and white) interchangeably to the line inputs L1 and L2 without affecting motor rotation nor fear of energizing and getting a shock from the motor case. However, just as a point of consistency, I attach the 120V " hot" (black) to L1 and "neutral" (white) to L2. (Some motor labels make no distinction for L1 L2). The difference between wiring for 120V and 240V is simple. By following the diagram, the 120V connections are internally wiring the two running coils in parallel, and the 240V connections they wired in series. When using 240V, just use 2 wire (+ground) cable (conductors usually black and red, but you can use black / white cable if necessary and label the white black or red), as neutral is not needed. Can be connected to L1 and L2 either way, but for consistency I wire the black hot wire to L1 and red hot wire to L2.

Excellent explanation. I'm trying to replace a 3 phase motor with a 240v single phase and the wiring diagrams were the last thing to figure out. The new motor has the wiring diagram but I didn't completely understand it. Now I do. My only issue now is to find out how to wire it to the magnetic switch which WAS configured for the 3 phase. This is a show stopper. I'll keep looking. Thanks again.

On the part for reversing if you are using a drum switch to reverse it, can you wire it by adding an additional conductor and wiring so that in forward you applying voltage via the drum switch to T5 in its group with T4 and in Reverse the extra conductor to T8,T3, & T2? I'm speaking for a 208/250 Volt 1 Phase.

Do you have a video for wiring a dual voltage, single phase motor for 240 volts? Can you wire a single phase, dual voltage motor with a 4 wire cord (two hots, neutral, and ground) or does it have to be 3 wire (hot, neutral and ground). Only way I can figure wiring a 4 wire is to connect the two hots from 240 to the hot wire connection on the motor and the neutral and ground to the respective wires. I don’t believe that works.

my 220volt single phase motor had 3 posts. I accidentally hooked ground wire to Line 1 on motor, one of the hot leads to line 2 on motor and the other hot wire to the other post that has a couple other wires on it. It ran half speed for a few seconds and then I smelled some burned smell and shut it off, then realized my mistake and rewired it properly and there is absolutely nothing now no buzz no humm no movement no smell. Total dumb mistake. Did I fry this new motor and need to get a new one? Wish I would have watched your video first.
