Greetings
This query is regarding a 5 wire induction motor without a wiring diagram from a washing machine, one permanent capacitor, no centrifugal switch. here its 240v 50hz
I would appreciate someone explaining how to actually figure out the connections after measuring the resistance of the terminals against each other with various ohm readings, I want to learn this procedure.
I will include here the chart from measuring resistance between the wires, and someone could tell me do this and that to get it run, that's ok..
green-brown 92ohm
green-orange 140.1ohm
green-blue 86.9ohm
green-white 73.3ohm
brown-orange 106.1ohm
brown-blue 89ohm
brown-white 75.3ohm
orange-blue 44.8ohm
orange-white 31ohm
white-blue 14ohm

But in general as well if someone could write down instructions of how to figure out the connections in any induction motor when I have the information of the resistance of wires to each other.
