The transformer operates in reverse. In other words, a step-down transformer becomes step-up, and vice-versa. Example: a transformer with a 480 volt primary and 120 volt secondary: Ratio = 4:1 (480/120=4) Fed in reverse - Ratio = 1:4 Apply 120 volts, output is 480. Note that if you accidentally reverse the transformer, still feeding it with 480 volts, the output would be 1920 volts (480 X 4 = 1920) - probably not a good thing!
Across a 480 volt three phase system, 480 volts should appear across L1 and L2, L2 and L3 and L3 and L1.
Inspect all motor labels and see if they are dual voltage motors. If they are, they should have a label on them telling you how to convert the motors for 480 volt. This is a relative simple task. Converting to 480 volts will lower the motor current to half of the 230 volt rating, so you will have to change the overload heaters in the individual motor starters. You need to do this to protect the motors in case of overloading. Last the control transformer will need to be reconnected for 480 volt.

The conductor for H2 connection on a 480 volt wire transformer should be marked:
Your question answers itself... 1000 watts, when operated on a 480-volt source..

You need to mention the Load connected to find the current.
The voltage 277 volts is a three phase line to neutral voltage of a 480 volt system. What is needed for the protection of the transformer is a two pole breaker from the 480 volt CDP (Central Distribution Panel). The breaker will be sized to the KVA of the transformer. The wire will be sized to the breaker plus 25%. The electrical code requires that on motor and transformer feeders, they be sized to 125% of the total current capacity of the equipment.

Oil is used to cool the transformer. There is no telling what the transformer in question uses without knowing the specific part number and looking up the specification.
A 10 hp pump operating at 480 volts would draw approximately 15.6 amps of current. This can be calculated by dividing the power in watts by the voltage.
i think you just have to change the breaker from a 277 to a 120. 277 breakers are usually a 2 pole breaker and 120 is a single pole breaker. NO. 277v is not two poles, it is one pole, one single pole breaker in a 480 volt 3 phase system (typically). If you want 120 volts from a 277 volt source you need a step down transformer 277 volt to 120 volt , or 480/277 to 120/208 .
Can I run 480 volt , 60 HZ motor at a 380 volt , 60 Hz system?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The 277 volt heater can be wired to a single pole breaker in a 3 phase 4 wire 480 volt distribution panel. The breaker should be sized to the amperage draw of the heater. 277 volts is the star point (wye) voltage of a 480 3 phase system. 480 / 1.73 = 277 volts. The third answer is not correct, two phase legs of a 480 volt system will give you 480 volts. It is the phase leg to ground (neutral) that gives you the 277 volts.A 277 Volt heater or device may not be wired to a 480 Volt circuit or box. A 277 Volt device may only be wired to a circuit rated for 277V/480V equipment.2 legs of 480 volts will give you 277. But since you don't know the answer you probably shouldn't be doing it! Please don't kill yourself, hire a licensed electrician.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energizedIF YOU ARE NOT REALLY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
Probably not, in the case of a three-phase transformer as it has been pre-connected, enclosed in a metal tank, fitted with the appropriate bushings, etc.. However, it is a relatively straightforward job in the case of a three-phase transformer bank that comprises three separate, single-phase, transformers. Whether you'll obtain your desired secondary voltage is another matter.
