Short answer: No. (unless you like ruining motors)

Longer answer: Not really, but there are some motors that can be re-wired so that instead of 440v they will run on 220v. However, this is not that common.

Conclusion: Check the motor to see if it is dual-voltage on it's nameplate. If it is, you can re-connect it to work on 220v. If it is NOT a dual-voltage motor, you will absolutely ruin it if you connect it to 220v.

What else can I help you with?

Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?

No, it is not recommended to run a 570 volt motor on a 480 volt power supply. The motor is rated for a specific voltage to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage. Running the motor at a lower voltage could result in overheating and premature failure.

Can you rewire a mixer 120 volt motor to run a 220 volts?

It is not recommended to rewire a 120-volt motor to run on 220 volts, as it can damage the motor and pose a safety risk. It is best to purchase a motor designed to run on 220 volts to ensure proper functioning and safety.


How can you rewire your 220 volt motor to run on 120 volts?

If a motor is designed to run on different voltages there will be a wiring diagram on motor plate for 120 volt wiring. If not you will have to use a step up transformer to convert 120 V to the higher voltage.
