Can you run a 3 phase motor from 240 volts socket or would a change of motor be required?

yes . A change of motor would be required. The motor windings would have to be totally different. three hot leads instead of two. And three phase would have to come from your provider.

How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?
You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.
Does a three phase motor have a neutral?
No, three phase motors do not actually have neutral line unless you are referring to the motor control centre where a neutral line is required when your control coils and other components are single phase operated
How do you calculate the number of turns that are required for the coils of three phase AC motor?
There is software that can be downloaded to help calculate the number of turns for a three phase motor. There are also diagrams which can be found for the most frequently used calculations.
What size motor do you need to run a compressor 2 stage 80 gallon tank i have a 3 phase on it and want to change motor?
You probably need a 5hp or 7hp motor. Look for HP rating o the 3 phase motor and select the same for single phase. 3 phase has same power but is more efficient at electricity use. Also consider a 3 phase converter. It allows a 3 phase motor to run on single phase service.
Do you change the high leg if your three phase motor is running in reverse?
yes
What does a three phase motor look like?
A three phase motor looks like any other motor from the outside. It might be a little larger than a standard motor but it looks the same. If it is not hardwired but has a plug, the plug will have four prongs instead of three. The socket will look different from a standard socket or the socket for a stove or air conditioner. It will also have four holes. The hole for the ground plug will have a special indent. That makes it so you can not put the plug in wrong. A two phase motor will run the correct way regardless of how you put the plug in the socket. If you would put the plug for three phase motor in the socket the wrong way, the motor would run backwards.
How do you do for phase sequence protection at three phase motor operation?
motor is designed to operate in forward and reverse direction for the purpose of elevator. Phase sequence protection is not required.
What would be the horse power required in a 3-phase motor to replace a .5 horsepower single phase motor.?
You still need the same horsepower. The advantage of the three-phase motor is that it will draw lower current.
How many earth wires are required for single phase motor?
There is only one ground wire needed on any motor, single or three phase.
You have one hp three phase motor where as available power supply is only single phase how can you run this motor?
You will need to install a phase converter or change the motor to single phase. You can find a licensed electrician at www.contraxtor.com
Where to change 3 phase mixer to single phase?
More details required
What happens if you change wires around on 3 phase motor?
It depends on how, and with what you change them.
Does the speed of a split phase motor change apporeclably with a change in the applied voltage?
no
How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?
You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.
How much kva is required to run a single phase 5hp motor using generator?
To answer this question the voltage of the motor is needed.
How much kva genset is required for 3 phase 5 hp motor?
4kva
Does a three phase motor have a neutral?
No, three phase motors do not actually have neutral line unless you are referring to the motor control centre where a neutral line is required when your control coils and other components are single phase operated
