How to Install a Leviton Motor Starter Switch and Motor Starter Box

I'm here in El Paso in our metal stamping
department and today I'm going to be installing this Leviton three-phase motor starter switch
in my brand-new Leviton manual motor starter box, which is a NEMA type1 metal enclosure. Lets get started. With any job you want to remember safety first. Make sure you shut off the power to anything
you're working on.

In this case my power comes from a plug and
I went ahead and unplugged it. Now I'm going to take off the cover and we
can wire up our motor starter switch. The first step you're going to want to do
is take your two green wires or your ground wires and wire them to your box. Now I've gone ahead and put terminal lugs
on each wire and Im going to go ahead and slide that on my ground screw, the green screw
in my box, and taking a Philips-head screwdriver Im just going to tighten them down.

There we go. Before I wire up the motor starter switch
I want to go ahead and point out the designations on the back of the switch. You have T1, T2 and T3 L1 L2 and L3. The T designates your terminal leads, which
are your wires coming from your motors.

L designate your line or your power in so
we know that these wires are going to be on the L-side and these wires are going to be
on the T-side. Let's go ahead and make our terminations on
the motor starter switch. So, I've just finished making my last termination
and it doesn't matter where the black, red, or white go- what matters is that the two
sides, your L-side and your T-side, are identical this way your power and your motor are in-phase
together. Now, it's always the best practice when installing
a device to take a piece of electrical tape and wrap the device to prevent the terminals
from being exposed and touching anything inside of the box.

So now we're ready to go ahead and mount the
device. So I'm just finishing mounting the device,
there we go, now I'm going to take my cover place it right on, nice tight fit, take my
two screws, make sure I line up the box, taking my Philips head screwdriver, screw the cover
on. Look at that, looks sharp. Lets go ahead and plug it in and see how
it works.

So I've gone ahead and plugged it in look
at that, running good, running smooth. Another satisfied motor, have a great day..
