Typically, an 18KW motor would be too large to be single phase because then the windings' conductors will be too large inorder to carry such high currents. I,myself,don't think such a motor exist since a cheaper 3phase motor could be used instead.

How do you check single phase motor winding?

Single phase motor winding is often checked just by listening to the noise that the motor is making. An experienced person can tell if the motor is working at single phase or double phase.


Can a 3 phase motor be converted into a single phase motor?

A three-phase motor will not start if one or two phases aren't connected. If while running one or two phases "drop out", it will continue to run for awhile, but will eventually burn out, unless connected to a motor saver.


Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?

No. That would be a single phase motor.


How do you use a one phase motor in place of a three phase motor?

To use a single/one phase motor instead of a three phase motor is possible if you have a three phase power supply as you will only need to tap one of the three phases together with neutral and an earthwire, however to use a three phase motor instead of a single phase will require the provision of three phase power supply.


How do you convert a 0.37kw 4 pole 3 phase motor to single phase?

The motor cannot be altered to work on single phase power. You will either have to put in a new single phase motor or use a phase convertor box. Do a google search for phase convertor - you will find plenty.


What is the difference between a one phase and a three phase motor. And if a three phase motor is given a single phase supply will it run or not?

The difference between a single phase and a three phase motor is the amount of power conductors that feed the device. As to the other part of the question a three phase motor will not start or run on single phase. The phase angles on three phase are 120 degrees apart on a single phase system they are 180 degrees apart.


Can a single phase motor be wired to a three phase soft start?

No, a single phase motor cannot be directly connected to a three phase soft start. A single phase motor requires a single phase power supply, while a three phase soft start is designed for three phase motors. Using the correct soft start for the motor type is essential for proper operation and protection of the equipment.


How do you change the connection of single line to 3 phase line of DC motor?

To change the connection of a single-phase line to a three-phase line for a DC motor, typically you would need to use a phase converter or a variable frequency drive (VFD) to convert the power supply. This will allow you to provide the necessary three-phase power to the DC motor for it to operate efficiently and safely. It's important to consult with an electrician or engineer to ensure the proper conversion is done based on the motor specifications.


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

What happens when a phase gets short and also when it get opened in a delta and star connection?

In star connection when two phase is short,it work as single phase system. In delta when one phase is open ,it work as a single phase.
