How do you convert 3 phase star configuration 380 volts supply into 220 volts supply?

The process of obtaining 220 volts from 380 volts is quite simple. 380 volts is a three phase four wire system voltage. The 220 volts is obtained by taking the sq. root of 3 which equals 1.73 and dividing it into the phase voltage. 380/1.73 = 220 volts. This holds true with any three phase four wire voltage system. 208/1.73 = 120 volts, 415/1.73 = 230 volts, 480/1.73 = 277 volts and 600/1.73 = 347 volts. This lower voltage is present on any of the three phase legs of the three phase system to the neutral which is grounded on a wye connection.

Can you run single phase 230 from one side of 480 volt 3 phase?
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.
What is ac supply in America?
The most common voltage supply to homes is single phase 120V / 240V. In the states for industries, 3 phase 480 Wye 277. In Canadian industries, 3 phase 600 Wye 347 volts.
How does a 3-phase 115 volt power supply measure 200 volts in-between each phase?
You should have about 230 volts between any pair of 3-phase service legs: L1-L2, L2-L3, L3-L1. If the voltage measured between any one pair results in low or no voltage, then you have a fuse or circuit problem.
Why is 277 3 phase called DELTA and 208 3 phase called Y It seems to you they have pretty much same attributes?
408 volts x 1.73 = 277 volts is the star ( Y ) point of 3 phase 480V. A transformer connected in a Delta configuration is different than a Y or Star configuration. 277 volts is a voltage that is used in industrial plants usually for lighting. The following link will explain the whole star delta connection. http://www.allaboutcircuits.com/vol_2/chpt_10/6.html
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.
Is it safe to connect 380 volts 3 phase supply to 220 volts 3 phase supply?
No.
How do you create a common lead from 3 phase 120 volt?
If you are referring a common lead as meaning a neutral of a three phase system, the three phase voltage has to be 208 volts. This type of connection is in a wye configuration. It is found by this formula 208/1.73 = 120 volts. This connection will supply 120 volts between any one of the three supply legs and the grounded neutral.
What is the difference between three phase load and phase supply?
How much current equipments are drawing from three phases (combined or individual) is called three phase load and how much supply we are getting from source is called three phase supply. Ex. In INDIA single phase supply is 220 volt ac with neutral. So in three phase supply all RYB phases should be 220 volts ac with neutral individually. If we calculate with phase to phase than it shoulb be 415 volts ac.
Can you convert a 3 phase air compressor to 240 volts?
only way to convert from 3 phase to 240 would be to change the electric motor on the compressor
How do you convert 400 amp of three phase supply into kwh?
By knowing the voltage you could use calculate the wattage. Power equals volts times amps. Divide by 1000 to get kilowatts.
Can you run single phase 230 from one side of 480 volt 3 phase?
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 you change the wiring of a single phase appliance of 2.4 kw that works on 240 to 400 volts 3 phase 60 hz supply?
No, you can not you change the wiring of a single phase appliance of 2.4 kw that works on 240 to 400 volts 3 phase 60 Hz supply. They are two different electrical systems.

Can you buy a converter to connect to 240 single phase and convert it to 208 3 phase for electric grill?
If you mean by a converter, a transformer, to change the voltages then yes 240 volts can be transformed with a step down transformer from 240 volts to 208 volts in a single phase system. To answer the question single phase can not be converted to three phase without additional expensive equipment. One piece of equipment that will do it is a variable frequency drive. Another piece of equipment is a roto-phase. Either of these pieces of equipment would probably cost more than the grill you are trying to supply a voltage to.
How do you come up with 277 volts?
The star point or wye voltage of a 480 volt three phase four wire system is 277 volts. The 480 voltage is divided by the sq root of 3 (for 3 phases). The sq root of 3 is 1.73. 480 volts/1.73 = 277 volts. The same formula is used on all three phase four wire systems. 208 volts /1.73 = 120 volts, 416 volts /1.73 = 240 volts, 600 volts / 1.73 = 347 volts.
What is the total of a phase to earth voltage on 11000 volts?
An 11,000 volt three-phase supply has a voltage of 6351 from live to neutral, when there is a neutral wire.
How many amps do you need to supply a 150kva transformer to get 118amps 480 volts?
Rephrase your question, as it doesn't make any sense. If the primary side of the transformer is 480 volts 3 phase, this transformer can be supplied from a breaker as big as 180 amps. If 480 volts 3 phase is your secondary then you can supply up to 180 amps to your loads.
