The wiring should allow for 115 amps.
A 3-phase motor will not run on single-phase power or if one of the three phases is disconnected. If the motor is not running, there is no back-EMF generated in the coils, and they draw excessive current, thus overheating.
A single phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 50 amps. A three phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 28 amps.
yes the motor will run but will draw more current and the torque will be not constant means not smooth due to unbalanced current
In an emergency and for a short period of time you can single phase a three phase motor but the motor will be loud, have terrible power characteristics and depending upon the use will burn up rather quickly. You should never try to run this in other than a life threatening emergency situation, the motors are not designed for it. Normally you don't. <<>> A three phase motor will not start on single phase. If the motor was started on three phase and loses a phase, it will stay running at a lower percentage of efficiency. Now a days the motor protection will not let a three phase motor run in a single phasing condition. All three phase legs of the motor are monitored and in a single phase condition the other two legs of the motor draw a higher current. This higher current is sensed by the motor's overload heaters in the motor's contactor and take the motor off line by opening the motor contactor. Now to the question, any two legs of a three phase system in electrical terms is known as single phase. As long as the three phase voltage matches the voltage needed in the single phase power diagram it can be connected to operate single phase equipment.
A three-phase motor will not start if one or two phases aren't connected. If while running one or two phases "drop out", it will continue to run for awhile, but will eventually burn out, unless connected to a motor saver.
You still need the same horsepower. The advantage of the three-phase motor is that it will draw lower current.
P=VI P=power V=voltage I=current therefore current drawn is 5000/400=50/4=12.5 amperes

Yes, for a 15HP 3-phase 415V AC motor, each phase will draw approximately 26 Amps of current when running under normal operating conditions. This results in a total current draw of 26 Amps per phase for the motor.
A single phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 50 amps. A three phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 28 amps.

The line current would be the same if the motor were connected in delta. The current can be based on the rule of thumb which says 7 amps must be allowed for a 1-HP single-phase motor on 240 v. A 2.2 kW motor is three times as powerful, and on a three-phase supply of the same voltage (240/415) it would draw 7 amps.

Yes. they should. The windings in a three phase motor are identical, and provided they are fed with a supply that has the phases at the correct voltage, and at the correct 'phase angles' to each-other, they should each draw the same current from each supply line. (Motor windings are a 'balanced' load - they will all draw the same current from the lines if the supply is okay and the windings are connected correctly, and have no shorts or opens in them.) Some three phase motors can be connected to run off of a single phase line, using capacitors to give phase shifts to simulate 3 phase. This is an 'unbalanced' 3 phase supply as far as the motor is concerned, and while it WILL work, the motor will develop less staring torque, less full load power, and more noise - and it WILL draw different currents in each 'phase' while running.
5amps
For a 1hp 3-phase motor, the current draw will depend on the voltage supply. Typically, at 230V, a 1hp 3-phase motor will draw around 3.6 amps. However, this value may vary based on the motor efficiency and power factor.
