Yes, assuming the panel is 460 volt, three phase. You will need to supply a 2-pole breaker of the proper current rating. The breaker installs on any two adjacent phases, such as A-B. Any two phases of 460 volt, three phase power will yield 460v single phase.

IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB

SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY

REFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.

If you do this work yourself, always turn off the powerat the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND always use a meter or voltage indicator

to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

Yes, if you have a step down transformer.

It is theoretically possible that a 460 delta source could run a 230 star motor, if it is connected in star, but the applied voltage would be on the high side, 266 volts, and that might be too much for the motor.

460 is what you go between 2 277v to ground wires

Can you wire a 460V 1PH motor to any 460V 3PH system?

Yes, as long as you use only one phase of the 3 phase system. If R & Y gives 460 volts, use R & Y. This not a good approach though.

Why does one line of 3 phase 480v show 0 volts and the other 2 have 480?

My first thought is this is probably a corner grounded delta system, but I'm confused by your voltages. If this was a 460v (L-L voltage) ungrounded or corner grounded system, the phase to ground voltage is meaningless, but the phase to phas voltage will be 460v all around the delta. If you have a 460v system and you're only seeing 230v, there's something wrong.

Single phase.

What generator size for twin 150 hp 480 3 phase motors 800 amps for a tire shredder.?

First of all, a 150 HP 460V 3-phase motor only draws around 170A, so two of them would only draw 340A, not 800. 340A at 460V equals almost 300,000 watts (or 300kw), and the generator would need to be sized a little bigger than this to start such big motors.
