ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS AND WIRING
Three phase motor
protection and
suggested wiring
diagram
Three phase compressors are inter-
nally protected by a temperature /
current-sensing bimetallic protector,
connected to the neutral point of the
star-connected stator windings. This
internal overload line break protects
the motor against overheating, cur-
rent overload and locked rotor con-
ditions. If the motor were to be over-
loaded and the protector trips, all
3-phases are cut out. It might take up
to several hours to reset and restart
the compressor.
