Greetings to all. I'm not sure this is the correct place to ask for this information, but I've had little to no luck finding any assistance elsewhere so I thought perhaps somebody here could guide me in the right direction. I've got an older AC motor for an air compressor that was given to me just to get it out of their way and it's wired for 220. I need to change the configuration to 110, which it's capable of, it's a 115/230 motor, however the diagram is not entirely clear to me. Currently there are four wires coming out of the motor, theoretically, per the diagram, both hot. They are wires A and D. Wires B and C are wired together. The diagram indicates this is the configuration for 220. The diagram for 110 shows all four wires parallel, but does not indicate what they should be hooked to or if all are used. Do A and B both connect to hot and then C and D both connect to neutral, or vise versa, or does it matter? Do wires B and C just get capped and not used? Can A and B be hooked to neutral and C and D be hooked to hot? Also, since A and D are currently used in the 220 configuration, I know which wires they are, but how do I determine which of the two wires that are connected together are B and which is C? I'd really appreciate anybody who is proficient with AC motors to pipe in and let me know. Thanks in advance.
