Fire pump motor 250hp
Fire pump motor 250hp
(OP)
Can you start a 12 lead motor across the line, for a fire pump. I have a patterson fire pump controller for my fire pump which is rated 250hp and is protected by a 2000A disc switch. My practice has always been to connect the motor per the connection diagram on the motor nameplate. There is no diagram on this motor nameplate for across the line connection.
Can I still connect it across the line?

Is this a new pump just being installed or are you wanting to modify an existing installation?

Twelve lead generators are common, twelve lead motors are rare.
