ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
WARNING WARNING Hazardous voltage can shock, burn or
cause death.
CAUTION If you are not sure of proper electrical connections, consult a licensed electrician.
CAUTION Improper wiring can result in permanent damage to the motor. All electrical wiring should meet the local electrical code.
NOTICE
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS!
•Pump connection must comply with National Electric Code (NEC) or Canadian Electric Code (CEC), and all applicable local codes.
•All dual voltage units come factory preset for 230 volts. (Figure 3)
•Disconnect power at electrical panel before making any electrical connections.
•Supply voltage must be +/- 10% of motor nameplate voltage. Low or high voltage can damage the motor and will void the warranty.
•If possible, connect pump to dedicated branch circuit with no other appliances on it.
•Do not operate pump unless pump is grounded
DUAL VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENT
NOTE: To change the motor voltage(Figure 6) unplug the dual voltage connector on the motor and reconnect it in the position required to match the available electrical system. The motor can be set for 115 volts or 230 volts, except for 2 hp modles which are 230 volts only. The voltage setting of the motor can be determined by looking at the alignment of the arrow on the plug and the arrow on the motor terminal board (located under the motor’s end cover). Any questions as to which voltage setting is required for proper motor and pump operation in your system should be directed to an electrical professional. The factory preset is 230 volts.

Wiring Installation
NOTICE: Check motor terminal cover or nameplate for wiring instructions. The essential pump motor facts are as follows:
1.) 3450 RPM
2.) Single Phase
3.) Dual Voltage, 115/230 on 1 and
4.) 1/2, 3/4, 1, and
Step 1:
Remove motor access cover at back of motor.
Step 2:
Feed the grounding wire (green or bare copper) through the electrical conduit port in the side of the motor. First connect the ground wire then connect the power supply wires. Attach the grounding wire to the motor ground screw (green). Secure wires to prevent electrical shorts.
