9.3 Inside Delta Wiring Problems
Figure 23 shows a correct inside delta connection. With the cor-
rect connection, the motor runs properly with current limit dur-
ing starting and the line and leg currents are balanced.
Table 9 lists four improper connection problems and the unsuc-
cessful response for each. The “Example” column illustrates
only one of many combinations that may be responsible for the
problem.

Inside Delta Wiring Problems
Problem
Response/Example
1. Reversed Winding
The motor runs but makes non-
normal sounds and the running cur-
rent is very high.
2. Dead Ended Winding
The controller trips out on a single
phase fault. The line with the Dead
End Winding will have no current
flow. The other two lines will have
very large currents flowing.
Note:
Repeated attempts at start-
ing with this connection can dam-
age the controller.

line and leg currents are balanced.
Due to the phase shift in the leg
currents compared to the con

control, there is no current limiting
