Thank-you for this video.. With this video I was able to successfully wire a 220v wood lathe I was restoring.. Almost all the electrical components were gone when I bought it, so I had nothing to look at, nothing to "fix".. I had to buy all new electrical components and make them all work.... Again.. thank-you.
Is there any chance that you could give us the article from the electrical code in Canada that says we can't put the contact from the overload on the "neutral" side if it's connected to the ground ?
Sure. To abbreviate, 28-506 states that "...the control circuit shall be arranged so that an accidental ground... will not ....b) prevent the stopping of the motor..." Because the neutral is grounded, a ground fault between the coil and OL could allow that to stay energized which could cause safety issues. But moving the overloads to the opposite side of the coil or control circuit is opposite to traditional industry standard, and is a rarely enforced rule.
Usually as an indicator of a fault. It only closes when the Overload trips, so if you connect that to a pilot light or alarm system, that will activate and let you know your OL has kicked out.
Really depends on the operation and float type. Is it for fill or for drainage, and is it dual floats with high and low level, or a single float with a differential like a Flygt bulb? A ton of variations possible.
I wish I had the time for custom video requests! Unfortunately I don't as these are just done when I have time between my main job. Hopefully this helps some on that though.
Excelente explicación maestro! Saludos desde Venezuela!

Can’t believe it shows 1 comment! Well by my count here is #2…… good stuff. Looking forward to watching more of your vids. Thanks
Glad you liked it! Educational content doesn’t usually get a lot of comments!

What situation would you use the NO contacts on the OL?
Usually as an indicator of a fault. It only closes when the Overload trips, so if you connect that to a pilot light or alarm system, that will activate and let you know your OL has kicked out.
How would the wiring look like with a sump pump float switch ?

Hey joel i hope you remenber me! We met up the mountain. Have a great day’
Aye! I do. Glad to hear from you and see that you're still learning electrical!
Hello sir can you make a video how to connect Push button 2 to Magnetic contactor 13-14
As well as Pb2 magnetic contactor 21-22
