Info on installing a 2001 preferably with a controller.

Thu Sep 05, 2024 1:37 am

Does anyone know any good documents or videos on how to do it? after looking at a few things I don't think its overly hard, however, I most definitely need resource's that can help me figure out how without reading a 50+ page PDF.

If you're having difficulty following the installation guides in the manuals, I'd highly recommend hiring an electrician. Especially if you're dealing with public safety, you do not want the liability. It's also not worth the risk of causing an electrical fire, killing a motor, or electrocuting yourself or others.

Especially since those are three-phase 220 volt motors. That kind of power is almost unheard of in most places in the US in civilian places, homes, etc. And it’s extremely dangerous when you have little experience.

220 volts is past what is known as “the latching point”, when if you get shocked by that amount of power, your muscles with tense up and grab onto the wires, and you will be unable to let go, until you are unresponsive or dying of cardiac arrest. In other words, messing with 220 volts can KILL YOU
