Grizzly G4003G electrical ladder logic

[barcuna]

Yep, I'm pecking away converting the wiring diagram to a ladder logic diagram. It's a slow process, even for a fairly simple machine (electrically!). But a little bit more every day and before you know it's done!

When you add the overload deck, a contactor becomes a starter.

So true! And when you add a second starter and a timer and wire them to the motor leads correctly, one for Wye and one for Delta you get an "easy on the power company" starter. (Also easier on the electric bill if you have a peak demand meter.) Lots of places in the world require them. One of my European machines has the main motor start that way.
