1. Inspect the motors internal wiring to ensure voltage supply is matched between the motor and the power source.
If voltage does not match, it will damage the motor and void the warranty.
Example:
2. Supply voltage must be /- 10% of nameplate voltage indicated on the motor. Incorrect voltage supply may

arrangements. If a cord has been preinstalled the connection was completed at the factory.
5. Be sure all connections are clean and tight. Ensure the motor is properly grounded. Typically a green ground terminal
is located inside the motor connection box. The ground wire must be properly connected to an electrical
service ground to safely operate.
6. The pump must be connected to an adequately sized circuit. It is recommended to have a dedicated circuit that will
prevent voltage drop from other loads as occurs on shared circuits.
7.
Before wiring any part of the motor be sure the power is disconnected.
It is recommended that wiring be performed by a licensed electrician or professional serviceperson.
If pump has a factory preinstalled cord, wiring has already been set and this step is not needed; unless
voltage change is required in which case the cord will need to be removed and steps followed below.

Use designated supply wire size specified in the chart below. Correct wire size is necessary to avoid electrical
insufficiencies, allowing the motor to run cooler, more efficiently and eliminating line voltage loss. It is important

* Risk of shock! Connect only to a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI). Contact an electrician if uncertain.
* Replace damaged cords immediately to minimize risk of electric shock.
* Do not use extension cords to supply electricity to the pump.

If connecting your pump to a 115V circuit, make sure the motor connections match the 115V wiring diagram
listed on your particular motor.
When using 3 phase power the motor leads must be energized in the correct sequence to provide the correct motor
rotation. When viewed from the back end (opposite drive end), the motor must rotate clockwise. Incorrect rotation
could destroy the pump and void the warranty. If sequence of the incoming electrical supply lines is not known,
briefly connect the power for a second or two to determine the rotation while looking at the fan through the motor
end plate on the back end (opposite drive end) of the motor. If you are unable to see the fan you will need to remove
the drip cover (solid plate) on the back end of the motor (opposite drive end) in order to see the motor shaft as this
unit type will not have a visable fan. If the rotation is incorrect, exchange any two of the connected leads and retest.
