Thread: Colchester Master Lathe 2500 wiring issues
26/02/2023 21:03:51

Yes we have a wiring diagram and the manual.

And also we are testing it? Nothing we are doing is unsafe, just trying to see if anyone has any suggestions.

Hi everyone,

I wonder if you could help us, we have bought a colchester Master 2500 and we’re having quite a few issues getting it wired into 3 phase.

The previous owner wired in a 3 pin 13 amp plug to the control gear, 0/220 and then ran the motor direct from a inverter transformer.

I have a trans wave MT7 and would like to rectify the wiring to original but we are popping fuses. We are getting 3 phase power to the main isolator and from my understanding the bottle fuse coming from L1 through a 500 volt 2 amp bottle fuse should be the phase to power up the 240 control gear.

Does anyone have any suggestions/ pictures of their bottle fuse wiring on this model?
