    Need Condensing fam motor!!
    What is direct replacement for condensing fan motor k55hxlrh0208?
    Also which direction is determined from the shaft side or opposite shaft side?
    I believe it is a CCW. Also have heard it's OK to up grade to 1/4hp?

    Searched just the Number and got 1 result?:
    GENERAL ELECTRIC Motor, PSC, 1/4 HP, 1075, 208-230v, 48YZ, TEAO - Condenser Fan Motors - 1YJB5|5KCP39FGM599S - Grainger Industrial Supply

    I would call and have them Verify it is Compatible.

    Since it says CW/CCW in the Specs, you have a pair of wires to swap for reversing, you want the air to blow out the top.

    Rotation is determined while looking at opposite shaft side.

    I just hook them up, if they blow out the top, I leave it, if it is blowing down, I reverse it.
