Technically, yes. Each wire will carry 110V measured to ground. However, you need a third wire for the earth ground from the panel to the device. An ungrounded circuit is not only against the Code, but is a real fire hazard.

Well, not exactly. Appliances that use 220 volts may have different phase current requirements. For example, your stove uses 220V directly for hi heat settings or broil elements, but uses 110v to neutral (NOT GROUND) for reduced heat settings and for timers and lights. the current inbalance then is accomodated by the nuetral wire (NOT the GROUND).

So typically, the 220v appliance has 2 HOT wires (the phase voltage), 1 neutral wire, and a ground wire.

How will a 3 phase panel give you 110 volts and 220 volts?

A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.


How do you get a 220 volt single phase from 380 volt 3phase synchrounos generator?

220 volt single phase from 480 volt 3 phase that one wire taken one phase and second wire connected in earth point. we get 220 v The above answer is incorrect, one phase from a three phase 480 volt system will give you 277 volts to ground. You must use a transformer to get the voltage you need.


How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?

You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.


How do you get single phase 440 from three phase 440?

You Don't. 440volt 3-phase is actually 480 volts, taking a single phase gives 277Volts single phase. To get single phase 440 you would use one leg of three phase 440/760 three phase power.


How do you wire 220 volt from 2 110 volt lines. you have a concessions stand that is wired for 220 but everywhere you have been lately just keeps giving you 2 - 110 volt line?

To create a 220 volt connection using two 110 volt lines, you need to connect them in series. Ensure the two 110 volt lines are out of phase (provide opposite polarity) and then connect them together. This will result in a 220 volt supply for your concessions stand. It's important to consult a professional electrician to ensure proper wiring and safety.


On a 220 volt electric motor which is the neutral wire L1 L2 or L3?

If the motor wire numbers are L1, L2 and L3, it is not a single phase motor. It is a three phase motor. Also for future reference, a 220 volt single phase motor does not use a neutral.


Is the nortron wheel balancer 110volts or 220volts?

The standard units were 220 volt, 3 phase. 220 single phase was a purchase option. There were also conversion kits to convert the machines from 3 phase to single phase. The kits contained a 1 HP 220 volt capacitor start motor and a DC motor brake control assembly. Jerry S greentron@att.net
