What is the direction of rotation for electrical motors?
Single phase motors: The direction of rotation is due to the internal connections of windings loops during the stator’s manufacturing. Three phase motors: Terminal connections on three phase motors are signed as U1, V1, W1 in order to guarantee the correct phases sequence to assure the motor’s clock rotation (seeing motor from cooling fun site). This rules is valid for all our electrical motors, and do not depends from the motors’ voltage or size, also if those could be rotate on anticlockwise. A check of the correct sequence of phases is required by a Technician before to connect the motor to the electrical supply.
