Hi Mike,
I ran into a situation where I found a simple start/stop circuit had been wired with the overload not in series with the coil and not on the neutral side of the circuit. The designer claims that the overloads can be wired anywhere in the circuit as long as in stops the motor on overload. Until this situation I have never seen the overloads wired in a different place. Is there a standard, code or regulation that I can reference that can tell me whether or not the designers way of wiring is acceptable or not.
Thank you Mike and all the best, David
