Afternoon chaps,
I've got a mate with a rather 2nd hand 3ph compressor he would like me to connect.
I don't do a great deal of commercial work as many of you who know me will know but I want to help him out and gain some experience along the way.
There's an old 3ph panel in his garage with 3x 32a bs3036 which Currently supplies a 3ph+n+e socket outlet in 4mm swa via a 20a 3ph mcb in its own housing.
The compressor has a 5.5kw motor.
I'm happy enough with Sph contactors but haven't a scoobys how this one needs to be connected to allow safe operation.
Can one of you friendly industrial chaps throw some light on it. (pic attached)
any info (or light) muchos appreciated.
Apart from the 6 obvious terminals I'm at a loss.
I await the flames!
cheers
