Wiring Connections - Flotec FP5712 Notice D'utilisation

Electrical
Risk of electric shock . Can shock, burn or kill.
• Ground motor before connecting to electrical power
supply.
• Failure to ground motor can cause severe or fatal
electrical shock hazard.
• Explosion hazard. Do not ground to a gas supply
line.
• To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn
OFF power to motor before working on electrical
connections.
• Supply voltage must be within ±10% of nameplate
voltage. Incorrect voltage can cause fire or serious
damage to motor and voids warranty. If in doubt
consult a licensed electrician.
• Use wire size specified in Table II. If possible,
connect pump to a separate branch circuit with no
other appliances on it.
• Wire motor according to diagram on motor
nameplate. If nameplate diagram differs from
diagrams above, follow nameplate diagram.

Wiring Connections

1. Install, ground, wire and maintain this pump in
compliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC)
or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and with all
local codes and ordinances that apply. Consult your
local building inspector for local code information.
2. Make sure that the voltage, frequency and phase
(single phase) of the power supply agree with that
stamped on the motor nameplate. If in doubt, check
with the power company.

NOTICE Dual voltage motors are factory wired for 230
volts. If necessary, reconnect the motor for 115 volts,
as shown. Do not alter the wiring in single voltage
motors. Install, ground, wire, and maintain your pump in
comliance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) or the
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), as applicable, and with
all local codes and ordinances that apply. Consult your
local building inspector for local code information.
NOTICE Clamp the power cable to prevent strain on the
terminal screws.
NOTICE Voltage setting (under the motor end cover)
options are shown in Figure 6 and 7. Do not change
motor wiring if line voltage is 230 volts. Connect power
supply as shown for your supply voltage.
Grounding the Motor
Ground the pump permanently using a wire of size and
type specified by local or National Electrical Code.
1. Connect ground wire first. Connect the ground first,
then to green grounding terminal provided under
motor canopy (see Figure 6) identified as GRD.
Make ground connection to this terminal. Do not
connect motor to electrical power supply until unit
is permanently grounded; otherwise serious or fatal
electrical shock hazard may be caused.
2. For best ground connection, connect to a grounded
lead in the service panel or to a metal underground
water pipe or well casing at least 10 ft. long. If
plastic pipe or insulated fittings are used, run ground
wire directly to the metal well casing or use ground
electrode furnished by the power company.
