Actually these motors will be in a distillery. We talked with a GE factory Rep and he said since it is not A CL1 DIV2 Motor and as long as we do not drill into or open the motor we can move the termination box as long as it as long as a qualified motor shop does the work.
From my research TEFC motors are not UL listed, only TEFC Explosion-Proof are UL Listed. My motor is NOT "Explosion-Proof" so I should not run into any UL issues.
I have a situation where I need to move the motor termination box to the top of the motor, because of clearance issues. The motors are 480V, 200HP, TEFC. I contacted a motor shop and they can make a duct from the side of the motor to the top of the motor where I can re-attach the motor...
