Yes. But if you don't know the answer to the question please hire a professional. The life you save may be your own.
5000 volt
6000amps <<>> The above answer must have big lugs to accommodate 6000 amp capacity wire. In my breaker catalogue the largest 120 volt single pole breaker is 70 amps, 277 volt single pole is 150 amps and 347 volt single pole is 100 amps. The 120 volt single pole breaker occupies two opposed slots because of its length.
It's possible, but not at all economic. Usually the 240V (sure it's not 277?) has been stepped down from 480V service already. Sounds like this is a commercial application. 480 is rare in residential, but quite common in commercial. If you need 480, you'll need to get ahead of the step down transformer.AnswerYou cannot obtain a three-phase supply from a single-phase supply.
Check for a blown fuse in one of the phase legs.
Yes it would work pretty well but it might not meet its accuracy specification.
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.
5000 volt
For a 240-volt single-phase induction motor, a two-pole motor starter is typically required, as it connects to the two live conductors of the single-phase supply. For a 440-volt three-phase induction motor, a three-pole motor starter is needed, as it connects to the three phases of the three-phase supply.

A single pole breaker controls one wire and is used for 120-volt circuits, while a double pole breaker controls two wires and is used for 240-volt circuits.
Yes - Most switches have two positions for the fuses. The bottom of the bracket for the fuse holders can be moved up to accommodate the shorter 250V fuses.
A single pole breaker controls one hot wire and is used for 120-volt circuits, while a double pole breaker controls two hot wires and is used for 240-volt circuits.
Double pole Single Throw switches are sometimes called DPST switches. Assuming the circuit is single phase two wire system, DPST - are used to isolate the ciruit. Isoloation occurs on both terminals hence it is called double pole. This isolation occurs at only one end in the circuit, hence it is called single throw.

Yes, 277-volt 2-pole breakers are available and commonly used in commercial and industrial applications, particularly for lighting and HVAC systems. These breakers are designed to handle the specific voltage and are typically found in three-phase electrical systems. When selecting a breaker, ensure it meets the required specifications for your application and complies with local electrical codes.
