IMPORTANT: Some motors can be manufactured with six leads, in three 
pairs. However, this does not indicate that the motor is suitable for "Delta-
Wye” connection. If it is, it will be indicated in the nameplate. 
 
A motor with six leads shall be connected as follows: 
 
1.  Leads marked with the same number must 
be connected to each other 1-1, 2-2 & 3-3. 
2.  Three pairs will be obtained. Each one shall 
be  connected  to  a  different  phase  of  the 
electrical supply.  
 
 
IMPORTANT: 
  If the motor was requested with a special connection, do not connect 
the  motor  as  described  above.  For  further  information  and/or  technical 
support, please contact your local SIEMENS sales office. 
 
  The motor might be supplied with an internal device protecting the 
windings  against  overheating  and/or  overload.  The  type  of  the  protection 
device  is  specified  in  the  nameplate.  A  RTD  (Resistance  Temperature 
Detector)  is  placed  on  or  inside  the  windings  to  record  its  temperature. 
Leads  of  this  device  must  be  connected  to  another  device  capable  of 
interpreting  the  RTD  signal  to  shut  down  the  electrical  supply  in  case  of 
overheating. 
 
  Overload protection devices act directly on the power circuit. They 
use  bimetallic  materials  which  deform  when  a  high  and  constant  current 
passes through them. E.g: The KLIXON's. 
CAUTION:  If  the  motor  is  equipped  with  an  electrical  heating 
element, it must have: an adequate power supply, overload protection, and 
switching devices that ensure that the heating element ONLY OPERATES 
WHEN THE MOTOR IS NOT ENERGIZED. 
 
CAUTION:  If  the  motor  is  equipped  with  tachometer,  safety  and 
connection  instructions  from  the  tachometer  manufacturer  shall  be 
addressed before starting the motor for the first time.
