It doesn't work that way. Phase angle relationship will affect the motor and grounding will be a problem.

This question is not at all crystal clear to understand and what you can do will depend on where you live and what incoming electric power services you already have.

If you're asking this question to find out how to produce a new 3 phase 4 wire supply from a single phase incoming service line - because, say, you don't already have a 3-phase service coming into your home or workshop and you wish to use a piece of machinery you have just bought that has a 3 phase motor in it - it can be done using an electronic phase inverter.

The prices of such phase inverters go up steeply according to how much 3 phase power they have to deliver so, if, say, you have bought some equipment that has a very large 3 phase motor, it may be worth asking your electricity service utility company how much it would cost to install a new 3 phase service at your home or workshop?

But, as already stated, this question is hard to understand as written, so if you are asking it because you already have an incoming 3 phase service at your main breaker panel - i.e. there are already 3 incoming service lines plus a ground wire - then in most cases you will already have available to you at least one single phase service and will have standard single phase outlets ready to use!

Always, of course, depending on exactly where you live in the world, most electricity utility companies nowadays generate and distribute their power as 3 phase and then use small 3 phase delta-to-star Transformers (also known as delta-to-wye transformers) in sub-stations on the ground - or mounted up high on service poles above the ground - to deliver local single phase services with a neutral to homes, offices, etc. which don't need a 3 phase service.

Yet Another Opinion

To obtain a single-phase supply from a three-phase, four-wire, system, you simply connect the load either (a) between any two line conductors, or (b) between any line conductor and the neutral conductor -depending on the level of voltage required. In the UK, for example: the nominal line-to-line (line voltage) is 400 V, while the line-to-neutral (phase voltage) is 230 V.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.

Before you do any work yourself,

on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,

always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

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.


Is the type of wiring in most homes single-phase or three-phase?

Single phase.


When would a three phase supply be preferred over a single phase supply?

Bcoz in single phase if supply is interrupt or any trouble there is no power .but in 3 phase if 1phase supply gone we can manage it by other 2 phases


Can you give single phase supply to three phase device?

No.


Is conduit necessary for single phase wiring?

yes


What is typical single phase voltage in Canada?

The standard nominal voltage in Canada for a single-phase residential supply is 240/120-V split-phase supply.


How do you start a three phase motor to a single phase power supply?

You don't. A three phase motor will not start unless it is connected to a three phase supply.


Can a single phase supply be used in a three phase supply?

Yes. This is often done in distribution boards.


Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?

No. That would be a single phase motor.


Is there a difference between three phase and single phase electrical supplies?

Yes, there a difference between three phase and single phase electrical supply services.


Is a 2 phase supply the same or equivalent as 2 single phase supplies?

Not necessarily. Two single-phase supplies could be supplying the same phase, which means you don't get the same range of voltage options you get with a true two-phase supply.


What is the voltage and current for a single phase supply?

240v
