In the context of motor wiring, it is important to understand the correct configuration based on the motor's specifications. Most three-phase AC motors have six terminals on their terminal block. When the motor nameplate indicates a Y-connection, the terminals D6, D4, and D5 are connected together, while D1, D2, and D3 are connected to the power supply. On the other hand, for a delta (â–³) connection, D6 is connected to D1, D4 to D2, and D5 to D3, with D1, D2, and D3 linked to the power source. This method is illustrated in Figure 1.

For three-phase blowers that also have six terminals, the wiring method is shown in Figure 2. A delta-connected blower should be connected to a 220V three-phase AC power supply, whereas a Y-connected blower requires a 380V supply. This type of wiring is commonly used for models such as 3, 3.5, 4, and 4.5 inches. Always refer to the nameplate for specific instructions.

Single-phase capacitor running motors have various wiring configurations. Incorrect wiring can result in motor damage. It is essential to follow the wiring diagram indicated on the motor’s nameplate. For example, the IDD5032 single-phase capacitor motor, as shown in Figure 3, operates at 60W with a 500V, 4μF capacitor. The forward and reverse connections are illustrated in Figures 3(a) and 3(b), respectively.

Another example is the JX07A-4 single-phase capacitor motor, which has a power rating of 60W, operates on 220V/50Hz AC with a current of 0.5A, and runs at 1400 rpm. The capacitor used is rated at 400–500V with a capacity of 8μF. The forward and reverse connections are shown in Figures 4(a) and 4(b).

Some single-phase hair dryers have four terminals, and their wiring method is illustrated in Figure 5. These units typically operate on either a 110V or 220V AC supply depending on the connection method.

The Y100LY series motors are widely used due to their compact design and energy efficiency. They can be wired in either a delta or Y configuration. In the delta configuration, W2 is connected to U1, U2 to V1, and V2 to W1. In the Y configuration, W2, U2, and V2 are connected together, while U1, V1, and W1 are connected to the power supply. This is shown in Figure 6.

Low-voltage transformers are commonly used in machine tools to provide a safe 36V supply. To protect against short circuits, an intermediate relay or AC contactor can be used instead of a fuse. This circuit, shown in Figure 7, ensures the transformer is disconnected in case of a fault.

The working principle involves pressing SB1 to energize the transformer and activate the relay. If a short occurs, the relay de-energizes, cutting off the power and protecting the transformer.
For two-speed motors using the 2Y/2Y configuration, different wiring methods produce varying speeds. Figure 8 shows the connections for both speed settings.

DC electromagnets may retain residual magnetism after being turned off. A fast demagnetization circuit, as shown in Figure 9, uses a capacitor to discharge the magnetic field quickly, preventing damage.

When an AC contactor lacks auxiliary contacts, an emergency wiring method can be used. As shown in Figure 12, this allows the contactor to self-lock after being activated, but caution must be taken during maintenance.

Single-phase capacitor motors are commonly used in household appliances like fans and washing machines. Different wiring configurations allow for speed control and direction changes. Figures 16(a), 16(b), and 16(c) illustrate these setups.

Finally, a three-phase asynchronous motor can be adapted to run on a single-phase supply by using a parallel capacitor. The required capacitance can be calculated using the formula CG = 1950I / (Ucosφ). This setup is shown in Figure 19.
