How to Change Rotation of Motor in Clockwise

Direction

No Present Motor Connection: Change Direction in Clockwise

1 R Phase Connected to U1 W2 R Phase Connected to U1 V2
Y Phase Connected to V1 U2 Y Phase Connected to V1 W2
B Phase Connected to W1 V2 B Phase Connected to W1 U2

2 R Phase Connected to W1 V2 R Phase Connected to W1 U2

Y Phase Connected to U1 W2 Y Phase Connected to U1 V2
B Phase Connected to V1 U2 B Phase Connected to V1 W2

3 R Phase Connected to V1 U2 R Phase Connected to V1 W2

Y Phase Connected to W1 V2 Y Phase Connected to W1 U2
B Phase Connected to U1 W2 B Phase Connected to U1 V2

Change Rotation in Anticlockwise Direction

No Present Motor Connection: Change Direction in Anticlockwise

1 R Phase Connected to U1 V2 R Phase Connected to U1 W2
Y Phase Connected to W1 U2 Y Phase Connected to W1 V2
B Phase Connected to V1 W2 B Phase Connected to V1 U2

2 R Phase Connected to W1 U2 R Phase Connected to W1 V2

Y Phase Connected to V1 W2 Y Phase Connected to V1 U2
B Phase Connected to U1 V2 B Phase Connected to U1 W2

3 R Phase Connected to V1 W2 R Phase Connected to V1 U2

Y Phase Connected to U1 V2 Y Phase Connected to U1 W2
B Phase Connected to W1 U2 B Phase Connected to W1 V2

Check Phase Winding Starting Phase and Connected ending Connection of That Phase winding to the
one Phase after the Phase where Phase winding Starting lead is connected. (Ex If U1 is connected to R
Phase than Connect U2 to B Phase, If V1 is connected to Y Phase than V2 should be connected to R
Phase)

I’m trying to get a 400 v 3 phase motor to work on a table saw Feeder. It’s rated at 1 hp.
Found an old machine motor that’s rated at 400 v also & thought I’d try hooking up my shop (using a
3 phase motor) generated 220/208 v 3 phase. It runs other equipment fine. Hopefully it will run the
440 v motor. No ma er if it’s less power that the 1 hp, less is ok. Any idea’s or suggestions there ?
