The motors in the range are, in most cases, 4 phase Uni-polar types which can also be connected for operation as 2 phase Bi-polar machines. In all cases the windings are rated for Uni-polar operation. When operated as a Bi-polar motor the maximum allowable phase current will depend on the way in which the motor is connected. Depending on the model, the motor will either have 6 or 8 leads
