Direction of motor rotation
EN 60034-7 defines the two ends of an electric motor as follows:
● DE (Drive End): usually the drive end of the motor
● NDE (Non-Drive End): usually the non-drive end of the motor
An electric motor will rotate clockwise if the shaft is turning clockwise when looking at the DE
side.
For electric motors with 2 shaft ends, the direction of rotation must be determined based on
the shaft end specified as the drive end.
For clockwise rotation, the electric motor must be connected according to the following table.
Table 4- 5
In contrast to the connection for the clockwise phase sequence, two phases have to be
reversed with a counter-clockwise phase sequence (looking at the drive shaft).
