yes, the voltage and frequency are both nominal. As long as your within 10% of the rated voltage and frequency of the name plate you will be good. 50Hz and 60Hz are not within 10% of each other. I do not think it will work. u also run the risk of burn out because it will run faster

Is there anyway to get 220V 60hz from a 110V 50hz power supply?

It would involve some electronics work but it could be done. Might add that it could be more expensive than just buying the proper power supply. Use Use 220V 60hz motor to run 110V 50hz Generator.


Is there a way to rewire a 5hp 3phase motor to run off of 240v without buying additional equipment?

No, you only have phase a and b. The motor will run as smoothly as a 3 phase motor that has lost a leg of power. That is if the motor is designed for 208v in the first place. Not a good idea.


Can a Volt motor run on Volt?

Short answer: No. (unless you like ruining motors) Longer answer: Not really, but there are some motors that can be re-wired so that instead of 440v they will run on 220v. However, this is not that common. Conclusion: Check the motor to see if it is dual-voltage on it's nameplate. If it is, you can re-connect it to work on 220v. If it is NOT a dual-voltage motor, you will absolutely ruin it if you connect it to 220v.


How do you run 220v 3 phase motor on 575v?

First of all, your power source must be 3-phase if you want to run the motor, then you need a step-down 3-phase transformer to give 220v 3-phase output.


Can you run 220V 50Hz on 120V 60Hz?

If you mean - can you run a 220v device on 120v where the 220v device needs that level of voltage to operate correctly then the answer is no. Even disregarding the frequency difference which some devices aren't affected by, the voltage difference is too great. Some devices these days, such as phone chargers, laptop power supply units etc will run happily on a voltage range from 100v up to 240v (read the label first) but they are the exception. The question is somewhat ambiguous and needs more information.


Can you run a 110v heater on 220v circuit?

No.It'll overload and fail just about immediately.It's possible - but not recommended - to run two 110 v heaters in series from a 220v circuit.


Can 220v 50hz CPU computer run 220 60hz power supply?

No


What capacitor should you use on my step up transformer with an output of 220v so you can use it to run my 220v 60hz motor?

If you have a transformer with an output adequate to run the motor, use it directly for the supply to the motor control circuitry. Remember when dealing with motors, the start current will be about 300% of the full load running amperage. Size the transformer accordingly.


Why would a hayward pool pump shut off after 3 minutes?

The most common reason would be LOW VOLTAGE. CHECK THE POWER AT THE MOTOR. MOST PUMPS RUN ON 220V IF ITS ONLY GOT 110 THATS WHY. CHECK THE POWER AT THE TIMER AND BREAKER ALSO USE A VOLT METER AND CHECK THE POWER AT THE MOTOR, BOTH LINES AND NOT TO GROUND.. CHECK THE VOLTAGE AT THE MOTOR..


Can you replace the 240v plug on my 240v mitre saw with a 110v plug and run it off a 110v transformer?

Changing the plug will not change the power needed to run the saw. If the saw has a dual voltage motor then a wiring change can be done to switch the saw from 240 to 110 volts. If it is not a dual voltage system then the saw must be fed with 220 volts.


How can you run a 220v 3-phase 60hz motor on a 380v 3-phase supply?

Not advisable, the voltage differential is too great.


Can you plug a ballast into a 120V outlet that is normally meant for 240V outlets if it's a 400W metal halide light bought in Korea and will it run in the US?

No, but it's usually quite easy to run a 220V line to wherever you want to put the bulb.
