Got my 3/4hp 3phase Baldor buffer today and am wiring it thru a KBAC VSR. There is a note on the buffer indicating it is wired for low voltage and that confuses me. Can anyone tell me what low voltage they are talking about?
Thanks for you help and best wishes.
 
208/230/460 and they are talking about 208.

*This is just a guess, but I hope it makes something pop for you.
 
If you have the Baldor 330B, then yes, low voltage would mean it's wired for 208v.
 
Thanks, big help. so I need to change it for 230v? I wonder what changes need to be made if so. By the way, I believe it is the 334 B 1750 rpm model at 208v/230v/460v. I need to set it up for 230v.

Actually the 208-230 is a range and is the low voltage wiring. The name plate should say 208-230/440 not 208/230/440 as you stated above. If your not familiar with electrical wiring, you might want to find someone who is that can help you out.
 
With a model number, You can see its 'specs in PDF at Baldors website. Baldor has good website support 'docs. Wiring diagram, etc.
I have not hooked up a Baldor for some time, But I think all Baldor terminal numbers are standardised.
