Don't know of any three phase low voltage motors. Perhaps it's a "stepper motor". Stepper motors are typically computer controlled, with the computer pulsing different pairs of wire to cause the motor to "step".

What does the phases on a nameplate of a motor mean?
On a three phase motor, the phases give you direction for how to hook the motor up to make it spin one direction vs. the other. If you hook up such a motor blindly with all three phases, it may spin in the opposite direction you want; to fix, you swap any two of the three phase connections.
How do you wire 3 phase power to 1 phase power diagram?
In an emergency and for a short period of time you can single phase a three phase motor but the motor will be loud, have terrible power characteristics and depending upon the use will burn up rather quickly. You should never try to run this in other than a life threatening emergency situation, the motors are not designed for it. Normally you don't. <<>> A three phase motor will not start on single phase. If the motor was started on three phase and loses a phase, it will stay running at a lower percentage of efficiency. Now a days the motor protection will not let a three phase motor run in a single phasing condition. All three phase legs of the motor are monitored and in a single phase condition the other two legs of the motor draw a higher current. This higher current is sensed by the motor's overload heaters in the motor's contactor and take the motor off line by opening the motor contactor. Now to the question, any two legs of a three phase system in electrical terms is known as single phase. As long as the three phase voltage matches the voltage needed in the single phase power diagram it can be connected to operate single phase equipment.
How three phase induction motor works without stator?
with 3 phase the rotating field is already set up when power is supplied with single phase you use a capacitor and a second winding to set up the rotating field
What is a split phase motor with relay and capacitor called?
A capacitor start motor is a split phase motor that uses a capacitor in series with the start winding to cause a greater phase shift, resulting in greater starting torque. It uses a centrifugal switch to switch out the start winding and capacitor once the motor is up to speed. I assume this switch is what you're referring to as a "relay".
What is the amperage of a 20 HP 240v single phase motor?
Typically single phase motors go up to 10hp. Wouldn't be very efficient at about 100 amps. A 20hp 3 phase motor at 230v pulls 52 amps. The 10hp single phase 230v pulls 50 amps.

Can you hook up a 4.3 transmission hook up to a 2.5 motor?
No
How do you hook up 3 phase to a 10 hp compressor?
First you have to have three phase power coming in. 3 phase are three hot wires working together on a syne wave. If you have 3 phase coming in, hook the three hot wires into the compresser, if it runs backwards, trade places with two of the wire and let the third one alone and you should be running.
Where does the PCV valve hook up to on a 6 l engine?
where does your PVC valve hose hook up to from the valve cover on a 6 l motor
Does a single phase motor heat up more than a three phase motor?
No, the motor manufacturer maintains a specific temperature range for motors to operate in. It is usually 40 degrees C. The frame design and cooling fan on the motor shaft keeps the motor operating at a temperature within the manufactures specifications. This is regardless of whether the motor is single phase or three phase.
When changing blower motor does it need to reset?
No it does not. Just hook it up it will work
What equipment is used to check phase rotation?
A phase rotation meter. Or a small three phase motor can be wired up and its rotation observed.
If you are trying to hook up a tach to your '90 Bonneville which wire should you hook it up to to get an rpm reading?
to hook up the tach use the hot lead on the disributor and to any good ground wire and if there is a light hook it to the wire on you light switch
How do you hook up your cooling fan to your battery?
A person can hook up a cooling fan to a battery by connecting the hot or positive lead to the positive side of the battery. The negative lead wire is then connected to the negative side of the battery.
Where can you get a free wiring diagram for a 480 volt reversible motor?
If the motor is 3-phase (it will say so on the nameplate), you don't need a diagram. just hook up all 3 wires in any order. If the motor runs the wrong direction, swap any two of the phases. This is true for all 3-phase motors. Its that simple! Warning: this obviously will only work if you have 480v, 3-phase power available. If you are trying to do this at home, it almost certainly won't work, because homes (in the US) typically have 240v 1-phase power. Trying to run a 3-phase motor directly on single phase power will destroy it. There are various ways to convert single phase power to three phase, but if you are having a hard time just hooking up the motor, they are beyond your ability at this time. Get a qualified electrician to help you! It could save your motor, and quite possibly your life!
Can you use a 3 phase radial arm saw on 240V?
You cannot use a 3 phase motor on single phase power. It will be limited in it's torque output, if it starts at all. The best thing to do is put the 3phase motor up for sale on eBay and buy a replacement single phase motor. If that is not an option you can get a converter, but they are expensive. Don't try to wire a 3 phase motor up to residential 220 if you don't know exactly what you are doing. Chances are you will burn your motor up.
