There are no three phase 120 volt systems.

What happens when you connect a 110 volt motor to 220 volts?

On a three wire supply system if you connect the two 110V wires together and they are across the phase they will short out and trip the breaker. If the two 110V wires are supplied from across the phase and connected to a motor then the motor will run. If the 110V wires are on the same phase nothing will happen.


How can you get a three phase output from 110v from step down transformer?

You can't. Three phase is a different animal.You'll either need to:drop in 3 phase power (expensive proposition),run a motor that drives a 3 phase generator. (another expensive proposition)FYI, the alternator in your vehicle is 3 phase, then it's converted to DC using a diode plate.


You have an old Gould 2hp elect motor that you want to switch from 230v to 110v The existing connections do not match directions in earlier question and suggested 110v connections differ from mtr diag?

2 HP, A-C Single phase, 115/230 volt motor. And you wish to operate it on 115V. First the circuit size would need to be a min. of 30amp/ #10wire.... Being a Gould is this a pump/motor? I ask because single phase pump motor are not reversible, so they have less leads to connect..Is the motor thermaly protected (check name plate) Again less leads to connect if not therm-protected. How many lead motor is it, and what are the leads #. If it is 4 leads and # t1,t2,t3,t4 connect line1 to t1 and t3 connect line2 to t2 and t4. Let me know what the # are and how many leads their are.. I would not operate a motor that large on 115V, (1HP is about max on 115V)

Are both 110V buses in phase?

The two 110V buses are 180 degrees out of phase. This is known as 120/240 split phase power, with the center point called neutral and connected to (protective earth) ground back at the distribution panel.


What type of motor is used in a 110V ac drill?

The motor for a 110v ac drill is a 14 amp motor. The 110v drill is used for household products and construction work. This is a tool that is not limited to wholesale purchases.


What is best to use 230volt or 110volt water pumps?

Either. Motor size or your available power local to the pump installation are the determining factors. If you have to use a large motor, 220v requires less amp draw on the circuit and allows a smaller wire than a large motor running 110v. If 110v is already there and you only need a small motor, run 110v.


What size capacitor is needed to start a 1 hp 14 amp 110V motor?

A single phase motor does not actually require a capacitor. This device is only needed when a split phase motor is utilised. A split phase motor needs a device to regulate the power factor associated with the split phase.


Can you convert 240 volt to 208 volt?

I'm sure you could, but it wouldn't be practical. The reason for this is because 208 volts between two phases comes from a three phase transformer, while 240 volts phase to phase comes from a single phase, center tapped transformer. If you're asking regarding a resistive load, such as a heater, the load should work with 240 volts or 208 volts. There will be a slight difference in performance, but it shouldn't be very noticeable. If you're asking because you have a motor load rated for 208v, you'll likely see that the motor requires three phase 208 volt power and you only have 'two phase' 240v power. You can however supply a three phase equipment or motor with a device called a phase converter.


If I connect 110v xbox one to a 220v outlet what will burn will the power supply burn or will the Xbox one burn?

If you connect 110V xbox one to a 220V outlet, only the power supply will burn and not the Xbox one.


How do you wire a 4 wire 3 phase to make 110?

In North America the only three phase supply that 120 volts can be obtained from is a 208 volt system. 120/208 is a common voltage connection that is used in many apartment and commercial buildings. The 208 voltage can be used in lieu of 220 volt appliance equipment and the line to neutral voltage results in 120 volts. It is obtained by the following formula 208/1.73 = 120 volts. For apartment distribution panels, two of the three legs are used along with the common neutral. The main distribution is kept in reasonable balance by alternating different apartments on different legs of the three phase distribution service.


If you are making your own device and you bring in 208 3 phase for part of your needs - how can you properly tap 110 single phase from it to operate other parts of your device?

Your incoming 208V 3 phase power supply will also need an incoming neutral of the same conductor size. Then any single pole breaker installed in the panel will have 110 volts to the neutral. That is you can run 208V 3 phase motor circuits from a three phase breakers in the panel and any number of 110V circuits from single pole breakers.
