I have an existing motor that is wired for "high voltage" (480v.) It needs to be re-wired for "low voltage" (208v). Easy enough to do. The problem is that it's not stated on the nameplate whether the motor is a Y or Delta.
My question is, can a person look for continuity between certain leads to determine if it is a y or delta motor? Or possibly with a megger?
The configuation on "high voltage" for a motor is the same for a y or delta so that doesn't give me any clues either.
Rolling the dice isn't an option
Thanks in advance for the help.
