Figures 3-152 3-153 3-154 Figures 3-155 3-156: Three-Phase Moiors Ilwstrations-Chapfer 3

A three-phase motor is connected to a three-phase power line. To reverse the motor's direction of rotation, any two of the motor leads can be interchanged. Various tests can be performed on three-phase motors to check for grounds and locate the grounded phase or end of a coil, such as measuring the amperage in each phase of a wye-connected motor.
