Topic Tag: 120v

I'm trying to start sourcing parts for a shredder and I'm really confused. 1) Is everyone using non-120v motors? i.e. in the US that'd be motors wired for facilities with this type of outlet? https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/fc9d16d2-a535-4a00-8100-ace7b81d5d3c_1.b5b95ed38dfd07bf0b3ad933b6cf3655.jpeg 2) Is anyone successfully using a 120v motor? What are examples of 120v motor sources in the US? I don't think I'll have access to anything other than 120v standard wiring in my workspace. 3) Are there any other wiring diagrams posted than the one below? I've searched but all I can find is this one, which doesn't make much sense to me. https://i0.wp.com/davehakkens.nl/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/2contactor-switch-01.png?ssl=1
