Electrical 6
Disconnect power at service panel before connecting motor.
Single phase motors come factory wired for 230 volt operation. Do not
alter wiring in single phase motors. Match motor voltage to power supply
voltage. Do not connect three phase motors to single phase power supply
or single phase motors to three phase power supply.
Ground motor before connecting to electrical power supply.
Failure to ground motor can cause severe or fatal electrical shock
hazard.
Do not ground to a gas supply line.
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn OFF power to
motor before working on electrical connections.
Supply voltage must be within ±10% of nameplate voltage.
Incorrect voltage can cause fire or seriously damage motor and
voids warranty. If in doubt consult a licensed electrician.
Use wire size specified in Wiring Chart. If possible, connect pump to
a separate branch circuit with no other appliances on it.
WIRING
Step 1. Install, ground, wire and maintain this pump in accordance with
your local electrical code and all other codes and ordinances that
apply. Consult your local building inspector for local code informa-
tion.
Step 2. Ground the pump permanently using a wire of size and type speci-
fied by local or National Electrical Code.
Do not ground to a gas supply line.
Step 3. Connect ground wire first. Connect to ground first, then to green
grounding terminal provided (identified as GRD or ). Make
ground connection to this terminal. Do not connect motor to elec-
trical power supply until unit is permanently grounded; otherwise
serious or fatal electrical shock hazard may be caused.
Step 4. For best ground connection, connect to a grounded lead in the ser-
vice panel or to a metal underground water pipe or well casing at
least 10 ft. long. If plastic pipe or insulated fittings are used, run
ground wire directly to the metal well casing or use ground elec-
trode furnished by the power company.
WARNING
