The power consumption is the same in both cases. For a high-power motor it is more efficient to feed a 3-phase motor because the amount of power wasted in the wiring that feeds the motor is less, assuming the same size of wire.

Motors do not output power they consume power. If you need further details open a discussion page.

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

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.

What size motor do you need to run a compressor 2 stage 80 gallon tank i have a 3 phase on it and want to change motor?

You probably need a 5hp or 7hp motor. Look for HP rating o the 3 phase motor and select the same for single phase. 3 phase has same power but is more efficient at electricity use. Also consider a 3 phase converter. It allows a 3 phase motor to run on single phase service.


What circuit breaker rating do you need for a 3 phase electric motor?

The circuit breaker is sized to the full load amps of the motor times 250%.


Can you replace a 480-240V 3-phase motor with a single phase motor as a temporary replacement or will it burn it out?

Yes, you can, and it won't burn out IF>>> the horsepower rating is the SAME. Pay attention to wiring and motor rotation. Also check the voltage: the motor voltage must be the same as the voltage between two hots of your 3 phase system. You will only use two hots as this is a single phase motor.


What motor gets more heated single phase or three phase?

Your question is a little like asking, 'How long is a piece of string?'! Do the two motors have the same power rating, or are they different?The rate at which energy is used by any machine is defined by its power rating. If the power ratings of two different machines are the same, then both machines use energy at the same rate. So if a single-phase motor has the same power rating as a three-phase motor, then they will both use exactly the same amount of energy over a given period of time.So, if a single-phase motor has a greater power rating than a three-phase motor, then the single-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period. On the other hand, if a three-phase motor has a greater power rating than a single-phase motor, then the three-phase motor will the greater amount of energy in a given period.


Is the full load current rating of a 3 phase motor referring to amps per phase?

NO, ONLY ONE. If you are measuring line current. The purpose of the line to line measurement is to know if your load is drawing balance ampere and slight difference is negligle.
