Yes a 208 voltage motor will operate on 220 volts. You have to increase the motor overload protection by 10% of the motor's full load amperage to protect the motor.

Would 230 volt 50 htz 3 phase motor work on 220 volt 60 htz 3 phase?

It would work but it would probably run 20 per cent faster, so if that is not a problem it's OK. But if the load is a fan, the motor might not be able to supply the extra mechanical power at the extra speed, so it would run but it would overheat.


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 a three phase motor work on single phase power with out burning up?

A three phase motor will not operate on single phase. The motor will run on two phases but will not start. Motors running on just two phases is called single phasing. The line current of the two legs will go high and it is this factor that the motor controller uses to trip the contactor to open the circuit and isolate the motor from the power source.


How do you convert or rewire a 20HP 3 phase motor to single phase motor?

The winding design of the motor will not economically allow this to work. You would have to drive a 3 phase generator to supply it.


Will fan work without condencer?

a three phase motor will work


Can a 230 volt single phase watt hour meter be used to monitor 115 volt single phase?

Yes it would work pretty well but it might not meet its accuracy specification.


Can a integrated circuit chip of nine volt supply used with 12 volt motor and work properly while using with bettaryof 12 volt?

no


Why not put a 12 volt motor to replace the 120 volt motor in your freezer Will this work?

The voltage of 120 volts is more common that the lower voltage of 12 volts.


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.


Can 3 phase induction motor work when one phase is failed?

yes the motor will rotate but less then the rated speed and more heat will be desipated


Why would the blower motor on a 95 GMC truck only work on high?

usually what causes that is the blower motor resistor. Get a volt meter and test it according to it's values, 90 percent of the time it's the RESISTOR.


Will a 3 phase motor work on grounded B phase?

If the motor is connected to an ungrounded delta supply service there will be no effect on the operation of the motor. If the motor is connected to a wye system supply service and the B phase grounds out, the motor's overload protection would take the motor off line from the electrical supply.
