Buy either a phase convertor or motor-generator with the proper input and output ratings. Essentially you have to generate your own 3-phase power using the 220V as the energy input. There is no wiring or connection scheme that will directly do this.

∙ 13y agoIf you were trying to obtain a 220 voltage from a 480 volt three phase system it can be done with a transformer. To take a 220 volt single phase system and change it into a 480 volt three phase system, it can not be done.
Depending on the amount of money you want to spend to make this happen there is a device on the market called a VFD ( Variable Frequency Drive). On the three phase input terminals you apply your single phase voltage. On the output terminals you connect your three phase motor. When run in this configuration there is an internal switch that has to be changed to let the VFD know that it should be looking for only two lines on the input to be hot. Other wise the VFD thinks that there is a line loss on the three phase input terminals and the unit will not start.
Actually, this is not true. You can go from 220 volt single phase to 480 volt three phase but in a rather cumbersome way. You would first need a phase converter - they have solid state VFD's that will go from single phase to three phase or you can build a simple rotary phase converter. After the phase converter, you will have 208/220 volt three phase power. From there you need a power transformer to step up the voltage.
Remember you have to know whether you want delta or wye configured Transformers!

∙ 11y agoIn a wye connection 220 volts is the line to neutral voltage of 380 volts. 380/1.73 = 220. The voltage of 220 volts will appear between L1 - N, L2 - N and L3 - N. All of these connections are classified as single phase connections.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoThere are two ways. 1: You don't. 2: Use a motor/generator or something designed for the purpose.
Normally we get both of these from 480 or higher voltage 3 phase power.

How many amperes for 3 phase 220v 5 tonner?
50 Amps Single Phase 20 Amps Three Phase
Can a 600V rated cable be use in 480V 3 Phase Ckt?
yes,
What is the voltage for each leg on a 480v 3-phase pannel phase to neutral?
Only one neutral conductor is typically in a 3 phase panel.
Can a 240 volt single phase load connect between the high leg and regular phase leg of delta connected three phase system?
yes but voltage will be out a little.This ok for something like a heater which wont care.But for an electric motor starting and overheating maybe a problem.In the US this would be 220v single phase and 208 volts 3 phase.
How do you run 220v 3 phase motor on 575v?
First of all, your power source must be 3-phase if you want to run the motor, then you need a step-down 3-phase transformer to give 220v 3-phase output.
How do you convert 380v 3 phase to 220v 3 phase?
Mathematically, just divide 480 by the square root of three. Electrically, 480V refers to the line-to-line value of a three phase system. For example, measure the voltage across A-phase and B-phase and you'll get 480V. 277V is the line-to-neutral value. Measure the voltage across A-phase and the neutral conductor and you should get 277V.
Can you modify a 220v generator into 480v power output?
Not on small household generators as they are only single phase. On large industrial 3 phase machines over 100 KW there are internal taps that can be changed depending on the generator coil configurations to select a variety of voltages.

A 100 amp 3 phase power supply is good for how many total amps?
100 amps to a 3 phase load. Power = 100A x Voltage x 1.73 ((line to line voltage)(1.73=SQRT(3)). 173 amps to each of 3 single phase (line to line) loads. Power = 173A x Voltage (line to line voltage). or... 100 amps to each of 3 single phase (line to neutral) load. Power = 300A x Voltage (line to neutral voltage). Example: - 3 phase, 480v, 100amp to a 3 phase heater. 100A x 480V x 1.73 = 83040 watts. - 3 single phase 480v (L-L voltage) heaters, 100amp. 173A x 480V = 83040 watts. - 3 single phase 277v (L-N voltage) heaters, 100amp. 300A x 277V = 83100 watts.
What does 277 vac mean?
That's 277 volts of alternating current. This is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system. Don't worry that 3 x 277 adds up to more than 480v. A 277v line is typically one phase of a 480v 3 phase system.
What are advantages of three phase ac and a single phase ac?
In a typical 3 phase system you have multiple voltages and configurations that can be used in either single phase or 3 phase, depending on how the circuit is designed. A single phase system is just single phase. You can have multiple voltages but it is always single phase.For example, in a typical 277/480v 3 phase system you can power 277v single phase lighting or equipment, 480v single phase lighting or equipment (which uses 2 legs of the 3 phase system but operates like any other single phase circuit), or 480v 3 phase motors.When comparing motors, a 3 phase motor will be substantially smaller than a single phase motor of the same horsepower. You can also reverse a 3 phase motor by switching any 2 leads. A single phase AC motor runs in one direction regardless of how the leads are connected.AnswerFor a given load, a three-phase transmission system requires less volume of copper in terms of conductor size, compared to single phase, so it is more economical to use three-phase.
Can a 600V rated cable be use in 480V 3 Phase Ckt?
yes,
What is the voltage for each leg on a 480v 3-phase pannel phase to neutral?
Only one neutral conductor is typically in a 3 phase panel.
How do you change over so you can plug a 120V RV plug into a 240V single-phase twist-lock receptacle?
Is the 220V plug 220V only or 110/220V? (The former will have 3 prongs and the former will have 4) If your case is the latter just use the ground, neutral, and one of the hots. This will give you 120V single phase. If the case is the former you can't get 110V off that plug.
How do you convert from 480 volt to 220 volt or 110 volt?
AC voltage conversions are usually done with transformers. Most commonly, a 3 phase 277/480v system is transformed to a 3 phase 120/208v system. You can, however transform to anything you like with the proper transformer. If you are trying to convert 480v single phase to 240v single phase, such as for home use, then ask for that type transformer. It would use only 2 phases of the 3 phase system. Using 2 phases is called single phase and there are reasons for this that are beyond the scope of this answer. 220v and 110v are field measurements of what is considered 240v and 120v when ordering equipment or applying code.
What does each of the phases mean?
480V, 3 phase, 60A means 60A flows for each phase? or 60A flows at neutral.
How can you run a 220v 3-phase 60hz motor on a 380v 3-phase supply?
Not advisable, the voltage differential is too great.
