# ANSI/IEEE Three-phase motor with fan form Canonical URL: https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/ansi-three-phase-motor-with-fan Publisher: Elora Grid Updated: 2026-10-28 Lookup label: M 3PH FAN Drawing use: SLD, Schematic Reference families: IEEE / ANSI, Manufacturer ## Symbol convention Convention: IEEE / ANSI Form: 3 Phase Motor with Fan Autodesk IEEE Symbol Preview: 3 Phase Motors, block HMO1M2. Matching functional counterpart linked separately. Independently drawn educational geometry; not a certified IEEE glyph or database identifier. Related representation: [Three-phase motor with fan](https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/three-phase-motor-with-fan) IEEE-library form of three-phase motor with fan: a three-phase motor with fan identifies an electrically driven ventilation or cooling load. ## In plain English ### What does ANSI/IEEE Three-phase motor with fan form mean? This reference locates three-phase motor with fan in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented 3 phase motors family. A three-phase motor with fan identifies an electrically driven ventilation or cooling load. The motor supply and the mechanical airflow arrangement are documented through linked tags. The public library uses HMO1M2 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number. ### A simple example Trace each winding, supply and accessible neutral through the complete machine or transformer connection diagram. Keep the phase arrangement, terminal labels and any clock notation attached to the device; neither the convention label nor this educational outline supplies its ratings. ### What the drawings help you do Identify whether the fan is an independent auxiliary load or associated with another machine. The fan symbol describes driven equipment while the motor symbol describes its electrical load. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted. ### This particular reference IEEE-library form of three-phase motor with fan: a three-phase motor with fan identifies an electrically driven ventilation or cooling load. The fan symbol describes driven equipment while the motor symbol describes its electrical load. ### Terms - Winding: A coil of conductor inside an electrical machine or transformer. - Phase: One of the related AC waveforms in a power system. - Terminal: An identified point where a conductor connects.
