What is the difference between a one phase and a three phase motor. And if a three phase motor is given a single phase supply will it run or not?
The difference between a single phase and a three phase motor is the amount of power conductors that feed the device. As to the other part of the question a three phase motor will not start or run on single phase. The phase angles on three phase are 120 degrees apart on a single phase system they are 180 degrees apart.
Can you wire a 3 phase 690 volt delta star motor to 480 volt 3 phase with out harming the motor?
Depends on the motor and the load on that motor. If the motor is loaded to its capacity, it will draw the same amount of power as it would on 690 volts - which will result in ( 690/480 = ) 144% of normal current, which will thermally damage the motor, or will trip overload protection.
How many current sensing devices are required by the National Electrical Code to protect a single-phase motor operated on 240 volts?
For a single phase fractional horsepower motor, only one over current device is needed in the motor feeder. This protection can come in the form of a switch which has the overload heater incorporated into it. These switches come in single and double pole configurations. Select the heater for the motors full load current that is taken from the motors nameplate. Search the web for "fractional motor starter switch".
Do all single phase motors have a start and run winding?
No, commutator motors as used in vaccum cleaners for example do not use a starting winding. Single-phase induction motors need a starting winding without which they will start in either direction if given an initial twist.

Drawing block diagram of single phase capasitor start motor?
How do you determine a 3 phase motor and each winding?
To see if the motor is three phase or single phase look at the motor's nameplate. There it will tell you what the voltage needs to be and what system phase the motor needs to be connected to operate properly.
What will happen if two phase supply given to the single phase motor?
Two phase is single phase for today's purposes. We generally do not call 240v single phase "two phase" anymore, although technically that's what it is. 240v two phase has power to both lines to the motor versus 120v single phase has one power line and a neutral. Fortunately most single phase motors today are dual voltage. So check your nameplate data of the motor for guidance. The use of proper motor protection will prevent any damage to motors if wrong voltages are inadvertantly applied.CommentA two-phase system is an archic system, in which two phase voltages are displaced from each other by 90 electrical degrees. Like three-phase, it had the advantage of producing a naturally-rotating magnetic field, so could drive induction motors without any need for a starting capacitor.
What are the advantages of three phase motor over the single phase motor?
A 3-phase motor produces a steady torque that does not pulsate. A 3-phase motor starts turning in the right direction when switched on without the need for a separate starting winding.
How do you check single phase motor winding?
Single phase motor winding is often checked just by listening to the noise that the motor is making. An experienced person can tell if the motor is working at single phase or double phase.
Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?
No. That would be a single phase motor.
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.
How do you calculate the no-load current of a three phase induction motor?
All transformers, single phase or three phase have a "no-load current" rating. That is simply the nameplate rating of the Xformer in VA, (volt-amps) or KVA (1000Volt-amps) for larger Xformers. Simply divide the nameplate rating in VA or KVA by the supply voltage and you'll get the Xformers potential maximum output in ampheres.

How do you convert a 0.37kw 4 pole 3 phase motor to single phase?
The motor cannot be altered to work on single phase power. You will either have to put in a new single phase motor or use a phase convertor box. Do a google search for phase convertor - you will find plenty.
Can a 240 volt single phase motor be supplied with one phase until the other phase is closed without harming the motor?
It is not recommended to supply a 240 volt single phase motor with only one phase until the other phase is closed. This can cause imbalanced current flow, leading to motor overheating and potential damage. It is best to provide both phases simultaneously to ensure proper operation of the motor.
Can you wire a 3 phase 690 volt delta star motor to 480 volt 3 phase with out harming the motor?
Depends on the motor and the load on that motor. If the motor is loaded to its capacity, it will draw the same amount of power as it would on 690 volts - which will result in ( 690/480 = ) 144% of normal current, which will thermally damage the motor, or will trip overload protection.
Can a single phase motor be wired to a three phase soft start?
No, a single phase motor cannot be directly connected to a three phase soft start. A single phase motor requires a single phase power supply, while a three phase soft start is designed for three phase motors. Using the correct soft start for the motor type is essential for proper operation and protection of the equipment.
