motor schematic

[Jon]

I need help with wiring this motor.

http://trilateration.bravehost.com/motor.html

My question is, does "LINE" connect the white wire to the common of HI and
LO speeds? My guess is that it does, but I'm not positive.

** That is certainly how it looks.

LINE = AC power, active and neutral.

The moving contact of the 2 speed switch links to one AC conductor while the
other goes to the white wire, plus the 7.5uF cap.

It appears that this motor is a 220 volt motor. If so, line would seem
to be two 110 leads out of phase and neutral would not be involved
except for ground. Would it not?

** The plate says " 208V to 230V PH 1 "

So there are any number of ways to use it successfully.

Mr pedant.

It is a dual speed 1/3 HP blower motor for HVAC. 750 or 850 RPM

The white wire & wire 'NO 1' is 850 RPM

The white wire & wire 'NO 2' is 750 RPM

This explains it. I understand it now. Thank you everyone for your help.
