No, you will not obtain 230 volts. From a wye connected three phase 480 volt supply, 277 volts can be obtained from one phase leg and the neutral on the wye connection. 480 volts/1.73 (sq. root of 3) = 277 volts.

Can a 230 volt single phase watt hour meter be used to monitor 115 volt single phase?

Yes it would work pretty well but it might not meet its accuracy specification.


Will a 208 volt 3 phase generator supply operate a 230 volt 3 phase motor?

Yes, but the motor's horsepower rating will not be reached.


What is 230 volt 3 phase?

for USA, Canada and other countries running a 60 Hz supply service.230 volt single phase refers to the two hot wires in standard house wiring but with the absence of the common return line, aka as the neutral wire.As using only the "hot" side of phase one (120 volt) and only the "hot" side of phase two (120 volt), so that these two lines yield 240 volts in phase with each other, it is called "single phase".This is sometime called 230 volts, "double phase" due to the two hot wires. Since both wires have the same phase, the term "double phase" is incorrect. As the two hots are balanced around the neutral point, "Split single phase" is the correct term to use.Typical usage examples for 240 volts split single phase include: water heaters, electric clothes dryers, water pumps for wells, central and some larger window air conditioning units, air handlers, electric heating units, floor sanders, and portable arc welders.For Europe230 V is the standard nominal voltage for single-phase electrical services to residences in Europe. It is obtained from a wye-connected, three-phase, four-wire, 400/230-V transformer secondary, by connecting between any line conductor and the neutral conductor.


Why is 230 volts classed as single phase?

In Europe and other places the standard single-phase supply for houses and small businesses is 230 v which is derived from a 400 v 3-phase 4-wire supply by connecting each customer's circuit between one phase line and the neutral wire.


Can the star point of a 400 volt three phase generator be grounded to produce 240 volts?

A 400/230-V three-phase generator hase three line terminals, together with a neutral terminal. The line voltage (i.e. the voltage between any pair of line terminals) is 400 V, while the phase voltage (i.e. the voltage between any line terminal and the neutral terminal) is 230 V.

Why is mains voltage 230V?

Yes 230 volts is classed as single phase but it is not the only single phase voltage. If you take any two legs from a three phase system, the voltage from these legs is also classed as single phase. The 230 volt single phase is the output of a transformer whose primary is one leg of a three phase primary high voltage system. The 230 volt secondary is center tapped to give 115 volts before the tap and 115 volts after the tap, hence the common voltage of 115/230 that is used in North America.

It is limited by the size of the fuse in the circuit.


How do you obtain a 230 volts single phase supply from a 400 volts three phase four wire supply?

400 volt three phase on a grounded system is 230 volt single phase, with each phase 120 degrees apart. So, if you have a 400 volt, three phase four wire service (grounded service), you can pull one phase off and reference to the neutral for 230 volt service. Note this may not allow 115 volt service, unless there is also a center tap for each phase.

How can I get 230 volt single pole wire from my house panel?

In North America you can not obtain 230 volts from just one single pole breaker. The distribution is like this, from a one pole breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From an adjacent breaker to neutral is 120 volts. From the adjacent breaker to adjacent breaker (breakers situated beside each other) the voltage will be 230 volts.If you want to incorporate a 120 to 230 volt transformer into the circuit you can obtain 230 volts. The primary side of the transformer will be connected to the 120 volt circuit and the secondary side of the transformer will output 230 volts. The transformer must be sized to the load amperage or the load wattage of the connected 230 volt load.


What size breaker for a 208 volt single phase motor that pulls 1.4 amps?

208 volts is not a common single phase voltage but you could just size your breaker to the capabilities of the conductor. 208 is normally a phase to phase voltage <<>> Many 230 volt motors can be connected to lower voltage supplies. These motors can be connected to supplies of 208 and 200 volts. The code requirement is that the 230 volt full load amperage of the motor be increased by 10% and 15% respectively for wire sizing and breaker selection. To answer the question you will need a two pole 15 amp breaker.
