A Tip on changing 3 phase AC motor rotation

We all know that if you want to change the rotation of a three  phase AC motor.
Just swap any of the two phase leads.
But for VFD application you need to do the swap after the inverter.

Yes, Good point.

, h5 i% v4 }; [" x' Z$ ], _
The phase rotation of the output of the VFD connecting to the motor is based on the sequence "open" or "close" controlled by the inverter pre-set inside; any changes to the phase rotation of the feeder will not affect the DC rotation, as DC is NO phase at all.
