You can divide a three phase service into (3) single phase circuits providing you have a 4th neutral wire.

What is the minimum voltage a 115vac 400hz 3 phase motor will run?

Yes the minimum voltage of an 115vac 400 Hz 3 phase motor will run. You can run a single phase motor on a three service but you cannot be run on a single phase.


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.


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 I convert Single phase to three phase for resistance heating?

Single phase can't be turned into 3-phase by any reasonable means. But on the other hand resistance heating is fairly straight forward. If only the fuse rating is high enough it might be possible to rewire a 3-phase heater to run from a single-phase source.


Can you run a three phase motor with single phase generator with help of phase converter?

Terminology gets misapplied but a 3-phase converter produces a 3 phase supply from a single phase supply. The only proviso is that generator, converter and motor are all suitably rated and compatible.

Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?

No. That would be a single phase motor.

Can a diesel generator for elevators run on single phase?

If the elevator has a single-phase motor, the diesel generator can also be single phase provided the voltage and VA ratings are compatible.


Does single phase power damage air conditioners?

If the air conditioner is designed for three phase, then it will not run, and could be damaged, by single phase power. Otherwise, no.


Which A motor is to be operated from 230 V 50 HZ single phase AC?

All types of motor can be run from a single-phase supply provided the frequency, voltage and power capacity of the supply matches that of the motor and it has been designed to run on single-phase.


Is it possible to run a single phase motor on a drive?

yes it is


You have one hp three phase motor where as available power supply is only single phase how can you run this motor?

You will need to install a phase converter or change the motor to single phase. You can find a licensed electrician at www.contraxtor.com

How many meters can you run single phase 240v to another house?

Like all supply cables, it all depends on the CSA of the cable
