Re: U V W terms
Not sure about on a single phase motor but with three phase they are just the standard terms used for them.
Line 1 U (Red)
Line 2 V (Yellow)
Line 3 W (Blue)
If used correctly from the power station down to the motor maker then the motor rotation will be correct every time it is wired in.Brian - Newton Abbot, Devon, UK

Re: U V W terms
Uvw are the designations for the windings in a three phase motor, this compressor maker probably uses the same shell for single phase or three phase
