This guide will explain how to wire a 2-speed 230v motor to a Hayward Pro Logic. Before you start, you must ensure that the electrical supply agrees with the motor's voltage, phase, and cycle and that all electrical wiring conforms to local codes and NEC regulations. If you are unsure of this voltage or are unfamiliar with electrical codes and regulations, have a professional electrician wire your pump for you or at least check your work. Failure to wire the pump correctly can cause electrical shock or can damage your pump motor and void your warranty.

Hello Roger - This is a hard question to answer without seeing the wiring diagram on the side of the motor. The diagram sticker found on the side of the motor should list the HI and LO wires next to the terminals. Not all dual speed motors are wired the same, which makes any answer without the diagram a guess.Reply

Would the "A" terminal on the pump in this guide be equivalent to the terminal 3 or 4 on a Pentair WFDS-28. They have the Terminal 1, 2, ground and terminal 3 or 4.Reply

If the new pump accepts 230 volt and is a single speed, connect a hot wire to L1 and L2, and attach the ground wire o the green screw. Unless I am missing something, I am not sure why you would be having an issue with his installation.Reply
