Yes. You will need to supply each phase with a separate 110V supply line. However make sure that the motor is designed to run at that voltage. Running the motor on load at a lower voltage than that which is on the name plate is dangerous because the motor will try to compensate for the reduction in power due to the lower voltage by demanding higher currents from the source. This will either result in damaging the motor or control circuits or causing bodily harm to yourself or someone else. Good luck.
What else can I help you with?
Will an electric motor rated at twelve volts run faster or slower off of nine volts?
I presume we are talking DC voltages here. The motor will run slower on 9 VDC that on 12 VDC.
What is the minimum voltage of US household mains supply?
240, single phase for houses208 3 phase for comerical property, can be single phase.480 volt for industrial property or 660 volts,all 60 HzUSA calls it single phase but there is actually 2 hot leads coming into the house with a natural and a ground.It is actually two 120 volt 'hots' which are 180° out of phase from each other. Voltage between either of these and ground will be 120 V. Voltage between the two hots is 240 volts. It is single phase because it is pulled off one of the phases from 3-phase, then a center tapped transformer gives the two 'opposite phases' (ground/neutral is off the center tap)In Vietnam we have 440 volts, 3 phase, 50 Hz on the poles.They bring in one hot wire and one ground. I call this single phase,It equals 220 volts in your house.
If a building has only 101 volts at the outlets but should be at least 110 volts what could be the problem?
First check voltage at the main and make sure you have 220 volts coming in. Check the voltage at both peak and off peak hours. If you find low voltage at the main lugs contact you local utility provider.
Should all 3 phases of a motor draw the same amperage?
Yes. they should. The windings in a three phase motor are identical, and provided they are fed with a supply that has the phases at the correct voltage, and at the correct 'phase angles' to each-other, they should each draw the same current from each supply line. (Motor windings are a 'balanced' load - they will all draw the same current from the lines if the supply is okay and the windings are connected correctly, and have no shorts or opens in them.) Some three phase motors can be connected to run off of a single phase line, using capacitors to give phase shifts to simulate 3 phase. This is an 'unbalanced' 3 phase supply as far as the motor is concerned, and while it WILL work, the motor will develop less staring torque, less full load power, and more noise - and it WILL draw different currents in each 'phase' while running.
Can you convert a three-phase motor to a single-phase motor?
Use only one of the legs (L1-L3), and the neutral. Some three phase circuits don't have a neutral. If that is the case, then you cannot run single phase.CommentYou don't need a neutral, providing the voltage is appropriate, you can get a single-phase supply by connecting the load between any two lines.
Can a 380volt's 3 phase motor can be converted to 230volt's three phase motor?
Only if you want to damage it. "277" Volt 3-phase will usually mean 277 from each phase to neutral, and 480 from phase to phase. By "230 3-phase", you likely mean 120 phase-to-neutral, and 208 phase-to-phase. If you really mean 230, then you are probably NOT talking about a three phase motor.
What type of motor is the inducer motor?
A circuit board is the inducer motor. It runs off of 120 volts.
Does overload relay detect phase reversing of the 3 phase motor?
No, three phase motor overloads just monitor the motor's lines for an overload. Once detected the circuit holding the magnetic starter in will drop out and take the motor off line.
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.
Will an electric motor rated at twelve volts run faster or slower off of nine volts?
I presume we are talking DC voltages here. The motor will run slower on 9 VDC that on 12 VDC.
Can you run electric CD player off of car battery?
You can if the CD player operates off 12 Volts DC. But, if it is a home CD player that runs off of 110 Volts AC then no, it will not work off a car battery. These are two different types of voltage.
How many lines can you run off 110 volts of electricity?
As many as will fit. The limit is usually determined by other factors, such as how many amps or watts are required rather than how many volts.
How do you obtain a 230 volts single phase supply from a 400 volts three phase four wire supply?
400 volt three phase on a grounded system is 230 volt single phase, with each phase 120 degrees apart. So, if you have a 400 volt, three phase four wire service (grounded service), you can pull one phase off and reference to the neutral for 230 volt service. Note this may not allow 115 volt service, unless there is also a center tap for each phase.
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.
What is phase fail protection?
In a 3 phase power system, say for a 3 phase motor - it is necessary to have all three phases intact to be able to run the motor efficiently, safely. If any one phase fails , the motor still continues to run but the temperature raises rapidly, due to high current. The motor winding can burn out, can trip off due to overload. Hence a device called phase failure relay is connected. It constantly reads all the 3 phases and cuts off the main supply in case any one phase fails.
How do you wire 3 phase power to 1 phase power diagram?
In an emergency and for a short period of time you can single phase a three phase motor but the motor will be loud, have terrible power characteristics and depending upon the use will burn up rather quickly. You should never try to run this in other than a life threatening emergency situation, the motors are not designed for it. Normally you don't. <<>> A three phase motor will not start on single phase. If the motor was started on three phase and loses a phase, it will stay running at a lower percentage of efficiency. Now a days the motor protection will not let a three phase motor run in a single phasing condition. All three phase legs of the motor are monitored and in a single phase condition the other two legs of the motor draw a higher current. This higher current is sensed by the motor's overload heaters in the motor's contactor and take the motor off line by opening the motor contactor. Now to the question, any two legs of a three phase system in electrical terms is known as single phase. As long as the three phase voltage matches the voltage needed in the single phase power diagram it can be connected to operate single phase equipment.
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.
