==== Three phase ====
Three power input terminals will be labeled L1, L2 and L3 in the motor control box. Separate Chime Master relay panels will use only L1 and L2 (single phase) for the controls and clapper/hammer outputs.
Three phase power when available is preferred because a smaller motor may provide the needed torque, and also because the motor does not hum as loud as single phase systems. Three power input terminals will be labeled L1, L2 and L3 in the motor control box. Separate Chime Master relay panels will use only L1 and L2 (single phase) for the controls and clapper/hammer outputs.

==== Single phase ====
Two power input terminals will be labeled L1 and L2 for single phase motor control boxes. Internal connections to PCBs will use L1 and L3 (no connection to L2).
