Identifying 9 unmarked leads of three-phase motors

Article

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.

When a customer calls and orders a motor, he usually specifies only the hp/kW rating, rpm, frame, enclosure and voltage rating. That leaves at least one critical area where the electrician can go wrong: The starting method and number of leads. As manufacturers produce more motors with 12 leads to increase versatility and reduce inventory requirements, there is an increased chance of error by the end user.
