I just bought a new electric motor on which the wiring terminals are rather confusing to me. Clould someone point out to what are the A, AZ, Z and T terminals are? AZ and Z are rather obvious, I assume No. 4 is the T and 1 the A but I'd love to be shure before hooking it up.

If it is a capacitor start motor (that bulge at 2 o'clock suggests it is) then the run winding will have very high impedance measured with a normal meter, just the leakage across the capacitor

Hi a little more information would be helpful what make and model would make it easier to advise, perhaps a picture of the information plate on the motor. Sometimes there is information on the inside of the terminal cover plate.

Hi Toni to post a picture the information is on a forum web site FAQ if you look at top of page on the black stripe Forums tab. I hope this helps.

Well done, the terminal labels on that motor are unusually confusing. If you don't mind saying, who made it?
