I was told that you just swap two leads going to the line voltage?

switch any two leads and rotation is reversed

The single phase motor will have probably no more than 4 leads coming from the windings. A 3 phase motor will have 6 or more. If the wires are marked with an A B or C it's 3 phase. This is usually a crimped ring around the wire. It could be a dual voltage motor with different ways to hook it up for either 230 V 3 phase or 480 V 3 phase. If single phase, it will be a 240 Volt.

Like you said just swap two of the lead and the rotation will reverse.

That is correct. Swap two of the leads.

not all 3 phase electric motor can change its rotation...
it depends upon the type of e motor..for example induction motor..Swapping of lead is not necessary to change the rotation.. there are methods to do... (to many to mention..)

You've got it. Swap the two outside leads.
