Was offered this pump and from what I'm seeing it was wired for 230 volts.Any of you electrical guys know how to change the wiring.Here is a picture of the wiring plate(mind the focus) and a picture of where the wires hook up.They had the black wire on Line 1,I have moved it to line 2 for 115,but not sure where the purple and white wire would go.Any help would be appreciated.IMG_20150524_133634_hdr_zpsun6pwnzq.jpg~c100.jpgIMG_20150524_133547_zpsara4lxyd.jpg~c100.jpg

 

 

 

Sorry guys,having trouble getting them to enlarge.The top screw is line 1 and the lowest screw is marked line 2.

White goes on the top screw (L1), Black goes on the bottom screw (L2). Black connector goes on the tab on the L2 post, Violet goes on the post where black was (4). (3) is left open. Just did one of these yesterday at my neighbours.....

Lopks like line 3.

Lots of times going back to 115 vts it gets internally jumpes somwhere.

Change lots of pumps back and forth

There is only a violet and smaller black wire marked with e.Just don't know where they would go as well as the main black and white coming in.I used to know this stuff ,getting older sucks lol.

Gmech just told you exactly how to do it Dave! Follow his advise before the magic smoke comes out !!!

Did it that way and not even a hum.Triple checked everything,the connections are right as advised.Didn't even trip a breaker.
