Voltage level of 3-Phase Induction Motor

Voltage level of 3-Phase Induction Motor

Voltage level of 3-Phase Induction Motor

(OP)
I have got a 3-phase induction motor without nameplate or any written/printed marks/letters on its body. But I am sure that it was manufactured by a North American manufacturer. How can I know its voltage level? What kind of test I should apply to it to know its voltage level?
Thanks.

RE: Voltage level of 3-Phase Induction Motor

For low voltage american motors the standard construction is 9 terminal leads 230/460 volts.
Can you provide at least:

a- quantity and ID number of terminal leads.
b- wire size of terminal leads.
c- line to line resistance in ohms.
d- Height(inch) from the feet plane to the shaft center.
e- Shaft diameter (inch)
f- Distance (inch) between mounting feet holes width and length(axially).
g- If possible run it no-load at 230 Volts 3 ph 60 hz and report shaft speed and current per line and connection made( 1Y, 2Y, 1D, 2D, etc).
