“Risk of electrical shock” Do not remove power supply cord and strain

relief.

Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware should be

performed by a qualified licensed electrician.

To automatically operate a non-automatic three phase pump, a control panel is required.
Follow the instructions provided with the panel to wire the system. For automatic three phase
pumps see automatic three phase wiring diagram.


Before installing a pump, make sure both of the ground leads and the power leads have been
connected properly. Once the power connections have been confirmed, then check the pump
rotation. Momentarily energize the pump, observing the directions of kick back due to starting
torque. Rotation is correct if kick back is in the opposite direction of rotation arrow on the pump
casing. If rotation is not correct, switching of any two power leads other than ground will
provide the proper rotation.

DO NOT PLACE HANDS IN PUMP SUCTION WHILE CHECKING

MOTOR ROTATION. TO DO SO WILL CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.

Three phase pumps DO NOT have integral motor overload protection. Pumps must be
installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and
ordinances. Pumps are not to be installed in locations classified as hazardous in accordance
with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

Connect pump to a junction box, outlet box, control box, enclosure with a wiring compartment
that meets NEC and local codes. The provision for supply connection shall reduce the risk of
water entry during temporary, limited submersion and shall comply with the applicable
requirements of the Standard for Enclosures for Electrical Equipment, UL 50, or the standard
for Metallic Outlet Boxes, UL 514A, and the standard for Motor-Operated Water Pumps. UL
778.
