Nomenclature can be confusing here. ? The Phase Perfect manufactured leg is T3. ? American Rotary manufactured leg is T3 or ¡°C". ?For consistency throughout my shop, T3 is connected to L3 in the wall socket, and the brown wire from the Felder machine goes to L3 in the plug. ? T1 to L1, T2 to L2, T3 to L3 etc. ??
Shinta, your document shows the manufactured leg on L2. ??
Frankly it doesn¡¯t matter a hill of beans which lug on the plug and socket is the manufactured leg so long as the brown wire from the Felder cable goes to the manufactured leg. ?If you start swapping T1 and T2 in the wall sockets, some machines will run backwards. ? So consistency is important.
But connecting the PP T3 or AR T3 output to L2 in the receptacle is asking for confusion IMO. ?
The PP manufactured leg is very stable, whereas the AR (or Kay or whatever brand rotary converter you¡¯re using) manufactured leg can swing wildly even with the ¡°voltage stabilization¡± options installed. ? Keeping the brown lead from Felder equipment connected to the manufactured leg of a rotary phase converter is vital, otherwise the wild voltages will end up destroying or causing error conditions in the electronic positioning systems like DigiDrive and PowerDrive - been there, done that.

I uploaded a PDF of my plug wiring note to the document/electrical file upload section last week.? This applies to my 2019 and 2020 3-phase Felder machines.
