Motor Wiring Guide

Before removing the wires from your old motor you should make a note of where you are removing them and more specifically, what the lives colours relate to. The colour for low speed and the colour for high speed with a 2 speed motor and the colour of live for a single speed motor.

Your new motor will have a wiring guide printed on the underside of the capacitor box.

If you know what colours your lives are, it makes it so much easier.

Neutral and Earth are the lowest common denominators and by deduction, incredibly easy to ascertain.

Single speed motors have 3 wires.

Live, Neutral and Earth.

Live is generally Black but can be Brown.

Neutral is generally Blue, but can look faded,

Earth is Green.

Two speed motors have 4 wires.

Two Lives, Neutral and Earth.

Live for Low Speed, generally Brown.

Live for High Speed, generally Black.

Neutral is generally Blue, but can look faded,

Earth is Green.

You can sometimes find a red, you should see where that was on your old motor

and transfer accordingly.

Red will be a substitute for either Brown or Black.

But again, if you know what colours you pulled from your old motor it would answer all of this.
