[QUOTE="stholt5233, post: 484902, member: 31663"] Trying to hook this machine up, it is 3 phase, but there are no neutral or ground wires to connect, only the 3 hot wires?? It is an older machine, it was apparently purchased about a year ago,but never hooked up. I have 3 phase in the shop, but I am a little unfamiliar with wiring 3 phase. I have done a fair bit of residential wiring over the years(in the States) but no 3 phase. To my understanding, I should have at least 4 wires, 3 hot(phases) and one neutral. I only have the 3 hot wires coming out of the machine in a little junction box on the side. The wires are marked 1-2-3. These wires follow up to a 3 phase rotary switchfuse, from there to the control switch and motor. I see no ground strap or lug, or neutral wire or anything like that, other than a case grounding wire on the motor itself,so i am a bit puzzled. You still need a neutral(ground) for this to work, right? Am I missing something? Cheers, thanks. [/QUOTE]
