  • Help with A/C motor wiring

    07/27/2012 9:02:40 AM PDT · by finish9 · 15 replies
    Please help. I am trying to wire am A/C motor to 115v and I don't understand the wiring diagram. It shows 1,3 and 8 (1-3-8) connected, 4 (-4) wire standalone and 2, J and 5 (-2-J-5) connectd. My "text" drawing didn't work so I hope this makes sense. Does the black (hot) connect to 1,3 and 8 wires of the motor and the white to 4 and green to 2,J and 5? This is a Baldor Ind 115/230 .5 hp motor. Thanks in advance!

    I made the mistake of letting my NRA membership expire. Now I'm hounded several times a week to reup. Because of there late night calling several times a week I will not reup. I wish they would just go away. They are a pain in the arse. They will not take NO for an answer. How can I get them from calling me? I love guns and hunting, but I don't like being hunted. finish9
