Yes, that's possible, but only for low-powered motor.

You know that in order to start, the stator must be supplied with voltages that are shows shift phase between them,

so the trick is to use a capacitor (since it shifts phase current) to simulate a 3-phase source.

As indicated in the following picture:

Yes.


How do you connect a volt to a circuit?

A volt can not be connected to a circuit.


In a 240 volt single phase circuit A phase is 4000 watts B phase is 7000 watts what is the neutral load?

Question is incorrect. in a 240 Volt single phase circuit, how can you have A phase and B phase?


Can you use a 2 pole breaker for a 120 volt single phase circuit?

No, a 2 pole breaker is designed for a 240-volt circuit or for two separate 120-volt circuits that are out of phase with each other. For a 120-volt single-phase circuit, you would typically use a single-pole breaker.


Acceptable voltage drop for 3 phase 415 volt motor?

The voltage drop should not exceed 3% on a feeder or branch circuit.


Will a 208 volt 3 phase generator supply operate a 230 volt 3 phase motor?

Yes, but the motor's horsepower rating will not be reached.


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 a 380 volt 3 phase motor to run on a 220 volt 3 phase power source?

Use a transformer.


A 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor What is the current in the circuit?

If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in series, the current in the circuit is 1.0 amperes. If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in parallel, the current in the circuit is 0.5 amperes.


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.

Can you connect 460Vac motor to 480Vac circuit?

Yes, the 440 volt motor is withing the 10% voltage range of the 460 volt group. When the supply is said to be 480 volts, usually it is lower than what it is stated to be. Once the motor is connected check the current against the motor's nameplate amperage.
