I've wired hundreds if not thousands of 480 volt motors. That should display my ability. It's not rocket science, it's just an electric motor.
P.S. Every one I wired worked first time.
If the motor is a three phase the most likely voltage the motor operates on will be 480 volts.
It depends on your definition of efficiency. 480 can certainly push more power than 208 through the same size conductors, but it would not be efficient to wire a motor for 480 when 208 was all that was needed.

For a 15 HP, 480-volt three-phase motor, you typically need to use 10 AWG copper wire or 8 AWG aluminum wire for short distances, based on the National Electrical Code (NEC) guidelines. However, if the distance from the power source to the motor is long (over 100 feet), you may need to use a larger gauge wire to account for voltage drop, potentially 8 AWG copper or 6 AWG aluminum. Always consult local codes and a qualified electrician for specific applications.

Depends on the motor and the load on that motor. If the motor is loaded to its capacity, it will draw the same amount of power as it would on 690 volts - which will result in ( 690/480 = ) 144% of normal current, which will thermally damage the motor, or will trip overload protection.
No, you'll burn your lathe motor up immediately. (it might last 30 seconds before it literally smokes.) You'll need to buy and install a "buck-boost" type transformer to drop the voltage from 480 to 420V. Best to have a qualified commercial electrician wire it up if you value your lathe.
480 by 800 will display sharper, smaller detail in pictures, but may take a bit longer to draw them.
the motor having voltage rating above 480 volt is hv motors and motor having rating below 480 volt is lv motors. generally motor above 185 kw is hv or mv motor and motor below 185 kw is lv motor.
Yes, you can have a 480-volt motor circuit in the same raceway as a 120-volt control wire, but there are specific code requirements that must be followed to ensure safety and compliance. The National Electrical Code (NEC) allows this, provided that the conductors are properly sized, insulated for their respective voltages, and that any necessary separation or barriers are in place to prevent interference. It's essential to consult local codes and regulations, as they may have additional requirements.
Reverse any two of the lead wires at the motor junction box.
