you could use a step down transformer if you had no other option. but the best thing to do is run a 220 feed directly from the fuse panel Step down Transformers get very hot and do not last forever

∙ 9y agoIn North America there are no appliances that use 277 volts to operate. 277 volts is the star point voltage of a three phase four wire system. The three phase system is 277/480 volts. The 277 volts is usually used in lighting applications in industrial and commercial warehouses.

What is the voltage of electricity supplied to houses in South Africa?
The standard voltage supplied to residential properties in South Africa is 230 volt single phase at 50 cycles per second (50 Hz). In some cases (by application) it is possible to get a 380 volt three phase power connected to the house.Outlet receptacles (sockets) and plugsThere are two official South African socket and plug standards: type M and type N. Type M is ubiquitous, whereas type N is not so common. Appliances with a type C plug are very commonly found and used with a plug adapter in order to fit type M sockets. Type N sockets are compatible with C plugs. Besides type M and N (and C), the older type D sockets can also be found.For more information see the Related Link "Electricity around the world" shown below.
Would a 15 kva 380 volt generator be big enough to run a house with a 60 amp breaker 380 volts?
A 15 KVA - Generator operating at 380 Volts can cater to only 22.79 Amps. It cannot cater to a 60 Amps breaker
Least common multiple of 19 and 20?
LCM of 19 and 20 is 380.It is: 380
What is the LCM of 38 and 10?
The least common multiple of 38 and 10 is 190.
What is the greatest common factor of 380 and 38?
lcm of 385 and 390385 = 5 * 7 * 11390 = 2 * 3 * 5 * 13so 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 13 = 30,030
Can you run 220 volt motor compressor a 380 volt supply using power inverter?
No 380 volts is too wide a spread to use a 220 volt motor on.
Can you collect one 220 volt phase from a 380 volt three phase plug?
Answer for UK and countries running a 50 Hz supply service.The voltage potential of 380 volts is not common to North America.It will probably be difficult to tap into the plug to get the voltage.If you have a three phase 380 volt supply from a source then you can obtain a single phase voltage of 220 volts from it. 220/380 is a wye voltage connection. 380 divided by 1.73 will give you 220 volts. L1 - N = 220V, L2 - N =220V, L3 - N = 220V. L1 - L2 = 380, L2 - L3=380, L3 - L1 = 380.
How connect a transformer 380 volt 3 pH to 220 volt mono pH?
any one of the three line to neutral is 220 volts
How do you get 380 volt from 220 3 phase?
Only with a 3 phase transformer.
How do you get a 380 volt 3 phase motor to run on a 220 volt 3 phase power source?
Use a transformer.
How do you get a 220 volt single phase from 380 volt 3phase synchrounos generator?
220 volt single phase from 480 volt 3 phase that one wire taken one phase and second wire connected in earth point. we get 220 v The above answer is incorrect, one phase from a three phase 480 volt system will give you 277 volts to ground. You must use a transformer to get the voltage you need.
Is it safe to connect 380 volts 3 phase supply to 220 volts 3 phase supply?
No.
How do you run 220v from 380 fuse panel Ship Supply is 380 and I need to operate 220 motor.?
You can get a buck / boost transformer which will step down the voltage. What will be important is phase supply.
What is voltage phase to phase 380 3 phase?
let me clear difference between phase voltage and line voltage. phase voltage is measure line to neutral and line voltage is measure line to line.there is correct answer that 380 volt is sum of multiply of square root 3 to phase voltage 220 volt.phase volt line volt220 volt x 1.732 = 381 volt230 volt x 1.732 = 400 volt240 volt x 1.732 = 415 voltM.

Can you run 480 volt motors in a 380 volt system?
Can I run 480 volt , 60 HZ motor at a 380 volt , 60 Hz system?
What is the simplest way to run a 3 phase 380 V motor of about 1 KW directly on 220 V single phase supply without resorting to rewinding or frequency converters?
You cannot run a three phase motor on single phase power. You'll burn the motor up within minutes. By the way, I've never seen or heard of a 380 volt motor. Do you mean a 480 volt motor? If so, the only way you can power it is with the correct full voltage and a 3 phase power supply.
Can you have 2 3-phase sockets off the same supply?
yes you can. for example in a 380V 3 wire system the 4th wire or neutral gives 220 volts against each of the 3 phases so you can have 3phase 380 volt plugs as well as 220 V single phase plugs. ah and by the way you can have as many 3 phase plugs as you like or as the power supply can support ampere wise.
