Machine and motor wiring diagrams
- [Instructor] Some wiring diagrams combine pictures of devices and wire paths and connections. Let's take a look at a few examples. First, a motor wiring diagram. Here we see a motor, a physical layout of a motor on the right-hand side. And on the left-hand side, there's a few different arrangements, a low voltage and high voltage option. These are two different wiring options that a user may select. You see all the different T numbers, or terminal numbers and how they're going to go to the right-hand side, which are the line numbers, L1, 2, and 3. Let's say for instance that we're going to select the low voltage, terminals T12, T1, T6, and T7 all get tied together to L1. You'll see on the left-hand side those four terminals, and on the right-hand side those four terminals. You would follow these directions or this process throughout the wiring of this motor, whether it was low voltage or high voltage. If you're wiring…
