Yes, if the motor is rated 240 volts 3 phase.

There is such a thing as 240 volt 3 phase power.

However if you are asking if you can use 240 volts single phase on a three phase motor, then the answer is no.

Can you use a 2 pole breaker for a 120 volt single phase circuit?

No, a 2 pole breaker is designed for a 240-volt circuit or for two separate 120-volt circuits that are out of phase with each other. For a 120-volt single-phase circuit, you would typically use a single-pole breaker.


How many amps is 6kW 240 volt single phase?

The equation that you are looking for is Amps = Watts/Volts. There are 6000 watts in 6kW.


Can a standard 40 amp 208-240 volt single phase oven be wired to a 240 volt three phase circuit without using a transformer?

No, a single-phase oven cannot be wired to a three-phase circuit without a transformer. The electrical systems are incompatible and may result in damage to the oven or the circuit. It is recommended to use the appropriate circuit or consult with a licensed electrician for proper installation.


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 1 phase be used with 3 phase?

If you have a 208Y/120 volt 3 phase system, you can use any one of the three phases (hot or ungrounded conductor) with the neutral for 120 volt load or you can use any two phases of the three phase for a single phase 208 volt load. If you have a 120/240 volt 3 phase system, you can use any two phases of the three phase for a single phase 240 volt load or you can use either the A phase or C phase with the neutral for a 120 volt load. You can not use the B phase with a neutral (you would have 208 Volts!).

Can you run a 208 volt single-phase computer off 240 volt power?

No. The 1-phase 240 setting on your computer's power supply is for the 240V wall outlets in other countries. The 240 outlets in your home are 2-phase 240.

Does a 2 horsepower rotary converter plug into 120 single phase and convert it to plug in a 3 phase outlet?

All my experience with rotary phase converters have been in converting 240 volt single phase into 240 volt three phase. They all were hard wired into their respective systems, so my answer is no.

How can you get a 240V single-phase power from a 120V 3-phase service?

First of all there is no common three phase 120 volt service. There is in North America a three wire 120/240 volt single phase service. That being said, if you want to change a 120 volt source to 240 volts it must be done with a transformer. Its classification is a step up transformer. The primary side of the transformer H1 - H2 will be connected to the 120 volts. The secondary side of the transformer X1 - X2 will be connected to the 240 volt load. The transformer is sized by the current required by the 240 volt load.
