Description: 80V - 120V AC Lathe Grinder Buffer Potters Wheel Variable Speed Control 1,800 Watts Not for small motors such as home sewing machines or drills. 1 (One) bare bones voltage/speed control for 4 to 50 amp 120V AC motors, large fans, industrial lighting and heaters.Small but very capable for high demand requirements. Strong enough for large bench grinders, lathes, heaters or fans. Circuit board is marked for input and output, two screw connectors for your 115-120vac source wire, the other 2 screws connect to your wires for motor, tool, heater, etc... These controls are best for motors above 1/8HP, providing steady speed and power, NOT for any DC applications. Connecting and testing motors: First make sure everything is dry and use rubber gloves for insulation. When I am testing motors, I use a test wire (black/white) away from the motor with low sparking copper connectors attached so they are less likely to stick to each other when I swipe them or touch them together quickly to see how the motor responds. I clip one wire together and swipe the other. I use (dry) rubber gloves and make sure the motor is secure for testing. I don't yet use the ground (usually green) wire as that would not help in determining connector/wire placement. I don't trust the color of the wires inside a cord unless I test for power with a light or voltmeter. Once I have determined which wire connections spin the motor correctly, take notes and then install the controller. I give the controller 2 or 3 seconds to respond, adjusting the knob slowly. The ground wire does not go through the controller. I don't really trust ground wires in general as a short, is a short - the wire is going to burn, grounding does not completely prevent shock, and many ground systems in houses, especially old ones can be disconnected or oxidized so bad that they don't work. I like to actually ground my bigger equipment to long spikes going through the floor to the ground (earth or dirt). For one testing area I put a copper plate under the cement slab with a bolt exposed for a quick alligator clip connection. *************************************************** Standard USPS US Shipping $5.35, Combined shipping costs are $1.99 each additional Please check my history for your assurance.
