Operation Guidelines

Installation

Make sure the wiring is done by a qualified electrician familiar with
NEMA MG2 safety standards, national electric code and all local safety
codes. Select fuses, motor protective switches or thermal protective
switches to provide protection. Fuses act as short circuit protection for
the motor, not as protection against overload. Incoming line fuses help
to withstand the motor's starting current. Motor starters with thermal
magnetic overload or circuit breakers protect the motor from overload
or reduced voltage conditions. The wiring diagram attached to the
product provides required electrical information.
