What does switchless mean? How does the start winding disconnect from the circuit once the motor starts turning?

"Switchless" in relation to the A.O. Smith CENTURY CENTURION motor means that the motor does not use a mechanical centrifugal switch to disconnect the start winding. Instead, it likely uses an electronic or solid-state component to automatically disconnect the start winding once the motor reaches the proper operating speed. This design eliminates mechanical wear and increases reliability.

The A.O. Smith CENTURION 8-177450-DI motor is an induction motor, which does not use brushes. Therefore, there are no brushes to change in this type of motor.

I have a Century pool motor. I have messed up the wiring on the capacitor by not taking a picture. It has 4 wires. Black, brown, orange and white with a red stripe. The capacitor has 3 prongs. ****, Herm and C. Can you tell me which wire goes to which connection.
Need help?
