Lead connection diagrams

9-lead Wye (High voltage · 460 V)

L1 ─┬─ T1 ── T7
L2 ─┬─ T2 ── T8
L3 ─┬─ T3 ── T9
     T4 ─┐
     T5 ─┼── tied together (neutral point)
     T6 ─┘

Tie T4-T5-T6 together and insulate. Feed line to T1/T2/T3; jumper T7-T1, T8-T2, T9-T3.

9-lead Delta (Low voltage · 230 V)

L1 ─┬─ T1 ── T6 ── T7
L2 ─┬─ T2 ── T4 ── T8
L3 ─┬─ T3 ── T5 ── T9

Parallel pairs: T1-T6-T7, T2-T4-T8, T3-T5-T9. No neutral tie.

12-lead Wye-Start Delta-Run

Start (Wye):
  L1→T1, L2→T2, L3→T3
  T10-T11-T12 tied
  T4/T5/T6/T7/T8/T9 open

Field notes

Terminal box on top standard; F1/F2/F3 orientations available.
W22 IE4 (Super Premium) is the drop-in efficiency upgrade for VSD screw packages.

The connection charts above are the NEMA MG-1 industry-standard patterns most brands follow. Always confirm the exact chart printed inside your motor's peckerhead lid before landing leads — voltage-code and lead-tag conventions vary between OEMs and production years.
