REMEMBER THE FAN OPERATES AT MAINS VOLTAGE IN YOUR COUNTRY, either 120vac, 208vac, 230vac or 240vac. The troubleshooting info here will give you a good idea how to analyze the trouble and I will cover several common configurations. Now if you have any question regarding this post then you can use comments section.Popular ceiling fans come in many varieties. I hope now you understood the ceiling fan speed control wiring diagram or ceiling fan motor speed controlling switch diagram. (Note that this an Basic guide of single phase AC (alternating current) fan speed regulating) How to wire dimmer switch for ceiling fan? For better understanding about wiring connection of dimmer switch read the below posts. This is another method of controlling speed of ceiling fan, in which we use a dimmer switch from controlling or regulating speed. For example if a motor required 4 uf capacitor and you connect a 10 micro farad capacitor then the result will be bad and fan motor winding will be burn.įan controlling Speed Using Dimmer Switch One thing more that don't connect too high value capacitor which is out of fan motor range. So high capacitance number of capacitor is connected to fan motor and fan motor run fast on high number of capacitor which 4 micro farad. So in the high speed direction of speed controller switch the all contacts are connect with one another, and both 1.5 uF and 2.5 uF are connect to the motor, it's means that 1.5 + 2.5 is 4 uF capacitor is connected to the fan motor. Here is the fan speed low, high and med speed direction diagram, So First we talk about ceiling fan speed wiring diagrams, which i designed 4 diagram in which i shown Off, low, med and high speed direction of fan motor speed switch controller.

And other one is using a dimmer switch from which we can control the RPM (revolutions per minute) of ceiling fan or other fan motor. For ceiling fan speed controlling we use mostly two methods in which on is by using speed control using three or five wire capacitor. However in my last most i shown 5 wire ceiling fan capacitor diagram, in which i also shown a speed controller diagram using speed control switch diagram.įirst of all i want to clear you that we can control the fan motor speed using 3 method in which we can do the ceiling fan motor speed control using two methods, while in stand fan motor we can also regulate the speed by doing the connections in axillary winding / starting winding.

One thing more we can also use dimmer switch for regulating speed of ceiling fan. On thing more i also shown in the below that how can we control the speed of fan motor using 3 wire ceiling fan capacitor. In this post i am gonna to share speed controller diagram with low, med and high speed diagrams. In this post i am gonna to tech you about ceiling fan speed control wiring diagram, from which you easily learn fan speed regulating speeds.
