jerricuda said:I have an air compressor looks to be dated 1963 , built by wayne pump
co. and has a single phase 5HP. GE triclad capacitor motor model number
5KC215AG201B that I would like to hook up to a 230 v panel ,but I have
no idea of the proper wiring. Can anyone supply me with a wiring
diagram. This compressor also came with a box that appears to be some
sort of contactor and is wired to the regulator. I believe that it was
originaly wired as 110 v. I can supply photos if nessassary . HELP!!
If the motor is truly 5HP then it will already be 240V, but I'm not sure
when compressor makers started inflating the numbers. The contactor
device is the pressure switch which cycles the motor on when the
pressure drops and off when it reaches a preset limit.
