No. You need a 3-phase supply that matches the voltage and current rating of your appliance.

How is a three phase agricultural motor used when there is no power supply?

With no three phase power supply you can't use a three phase motor of any kind at all!


Operation principle of three phase power supply?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-phase_electric_power Click on this link from Wikipedia. It gives an excellent description of three phase power.


Can you convert a single phase power supply into a three phase stabiliser to power a home?

Houses generally run on single phase power. It would not make sense to convert single phase to three phase to run a house. Please restate the question.


Will three phase power damage single phase appliances?

If you plug a single phase appliance into a three phase power supply, then you will be using single phase power. It does not matter if you are delta connected, AB, BC, or CA, or if you are wye connected, AN, BN, or CN. Yes, if there was "a problem", you would trip the supply. Question, however, is what do you define as "a problem"? Three phase power is intended to supply three phase appliances. Connecting a single phase appliance to three phase power is inconsistent with the objective, and such connection must have been performed by some kind of "jury-rigging". If you pull more than the trip current on any one phase, the supply should trip. If a malfunction in the single phase application, however, were to result in fault current that is lower than the trip current, you might not trip, and you might create damage and/or a fire. There is nothing wrong with building a branch circuit that feed a single phase load from one phase of a three phase source. You just need to provide the correct protection for that intended load.


Can you get a 3 phase supply from single phase and how?

No, you cannot get a three phase supply directly from a single phase supply. Nowadays electronic inverter units can be bought that will do the job. For very low power loads the cost of such invertors is quite reasonable but for high power loads they are very expensive. For high-power industrial uses the most economical solution is to have a 3-phase service installed by the local electric power utility company.

How do you start a three phase motor to a single phase power supply?

You don't. A three phase motor will not start unless it is connected to a three phase supply.

How do you use a one phase motor in place of a three phase motor?

To use a single/one phase motor instead of a three phase motor is possible if you have a three phase power supply as you will only need to tap one of the three phases together with neutral and an earthwire, however to use a three phase motor instead of a single phase will require the provision of three phase power supply.


When would a three phase supply be preferred over a single phase supply?

Bcoz in single phase if supply is interrupt or any trouble there is no power .but in 3 phase if 1phase supply gone we can manage it by other 2 phases


Is it possible to convert a 2.4 kw single phase appliance to a 9kw 3 phase appliance?

No, it is not possible to convert a 2.4 kw single phase appliance to a 9kw 3 phase appliance. Single phase can not be converted to three phase with out considerable cost involved.

Can a single phase supply be used in a three phase supply?

No, a single-phase supply cannot be directly used in a three-phase system. The voltages and phases are different, so additional equipment such as a phase converter or transformer would be needed to convert the single-phase supply to match the requirements of the three-phase system.


What is static converter can a power supply of computer is static converter?

A single phase supply can operate a three phase motor with a static converter. No a power supply of computer cannot be fed through the static converter.


What is the power consumption for a 3 phase of 415 volt equipment?

The power supplied by a three-phase supply, or any supply come to that, is determined by the LOAD, and not by the supply. So you must look at the data provided on the equipment's nameplate to find out what its power rating is.
