Compressor Help
« on: March 10, 2015, 02:40:21 PM »
I am getting ready to have my sRoque installed Thursday and wiring up the compressor.  Having an issue with the pressure switch.  The pressure switch has wires hooked up now, one labeled motor, one labeled line.  Those are run via flex to the motor wiring box, and then out the main flex conduit holding the 3 main power legs.  I'm not understanding where these are supposed to be hooked to.  I tried following a diagram online that had them running to L1, L2, but that trips the breaker out.  Anybody have anything for me?

Thanks,
Antony

Totally agree, some things are not worth messing with.

Sheridan is correct, the IRS and anything over 110 V deserves a pro.

Also just curious, are you running your air through a chiller/dryer?
