The physical internal windings between single phase and three phase motors makes this an impossibility. That being said, money can make anything happen. Depending on the amount of money you want to spend to make this happen, there is a device on the market called a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive). On the three phase input terminals you apply your single phase voltage. On the output terminals you connect your three phase motor. When run in this configuration, there is an internal switch that has to be changed to let the VFD know that it should be looking for only two lines on the input to be hot. Otherwise the VFD thinks that there is a line loss on the three phase input terminals and the unit will not start.

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
If you do this work yourself, always turn off the power
at the breaker box/fuse panel BEFORE you attempt to do any work AND
always use an electrician's test meter having metal-tipped probes
(not a simple proximity voltage indicator)
to insure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

What else can I help you with?
How do you change the connection of single line to 3 phase line of DC motor?
To change the connection of a single-phase line to a three-phase line for a DC motor, typically you would need to use a phase converter or a variable frequency drive (VFD) to convert the power supply. This will allow you to provide the necessary three-phase power to the DC motor for it to operate efficiently and safely. It's important to consult with an electrician or engineer to ensure the proper conversion is done based on the motor specifications.
How much more efficient is a 2 hp 240 v 3 phase motor compared to a 120 v single phase 2 hp motor?
A 240V 3-phase motor is generally more efficient compared to a 120V single-phase motor of the same horsepower rating because it provides smoother and more consistent power delivery. The 3-phase motor also tends to have lower operating temperatures and reduced energy losses, resulting in higher efficiency and better performance overall.
What is a 3 phase torque?
It is a short-hand description of the torque from a 3-phase motor. By the nature of 3-phase electricity, a motor using it gives a constant torque, unlike a single-phase motor which gives a torque that pulsates at twice the supply frequency. Usually that does not matter because there is enough inertia in the rotating parts to mask the effect.
What is the simplest way to run a 3 phase 380 V motor of about 1 KW directly on 220 V single phase supply without resorting to rewinding or frequency converters?
You cannot run a three phase motor on single phase power. You'll burn the motor up within minutes. By the way, I've never seen or heard of a 380 volt motor. Do you mean a 480 volt motor? If so, the only way you can power it is with the correct full voltage and a 3 phase power supply.
What are advantages of three phase ac and a single phase ac?
In a typical 3 phase system you have multiple voltages and configurations that can be used in either single phase or 3 phase, depending on how the circuit is designed. A single phase system is just single phase. You can have multiple voltages but it is always single phase.For example, in a typical 277/480v 3 phase system you can power 277v single phase lighting or equipment, 480v single phase lighting or equipment (which uses 2 legs of the 3 phase system but operates like any other single phase circuit), or 480v 3 phase motors.When comparing motors, a 3 phase motor will be substantially smaller than a single phase motor of the same horsepower. You can also reverse a 3 phase motor by switching any 2 leads. A single phase AC motor runs in one direction regardless of how the leads are connected.AnswerFor a given load, a three-phase transmission system requires less volume of copper in terms of conductor size, compared to single phase, so it is more economical to use three-phase.
How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?
You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.
What size motor do you need to run a compressor 2 stage 80 gallon tank i have a 3 phase on it and want to change motor?
You probably need a 5hp or 7hp motor. Look for HP rating o the 3 phase motor and select the same for single phase. 3 phase has same power but is more efficient at electricity use. Also consider a 3 phase converter. It allows a 3 phase motor to run on single phase service.
Is 3 phase motor run on 1 phase supply?
No. That would be a single phase motor.
How do you connected 3 phase motor to single phase power?
Use VFD to make 3 phase from single phase source.
Is 380 volts electric motor a single phase or 3 Phase?
It is probably a three phase 50 Hz motor.
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.
How do you convert a 0.37kw 4 pole 3 phase motor to single phase?
The motor cannot be altered to work on single phase power. You will either have to put in a new single phase motor or use a phase convertor box. Do a google search for phase convertor - you will find plenty.
How do you convert or rewire a 20HP 3 phase motor to single phase motor?
The winding design of the motor will not economically allow this to work. You would have to drive a 3 phase generator to supply it.
How do you change a direction of a motor?
DC motor: Switch your leads. AC single phase motor: Direction cannot be changed. The motor will run the same direction regardless of how your leads are terminated. AC 3 phase motor: Switch any two leads.
What are the advantages of three phase motor over the single phase motor?
A 3-phase motor produces a steady torque that does not pulsate. A 3-phase motor starts turning in the right direction when switched on without the need for a separate starting winding.
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.
How do you change the connection of single line to 3 phase line of DC motor?
To change the connection of a single-phase line to a three-phase line for a DC motor, typically you would need to use a phase converter or a variable frequency drive (VFD) to convert the power supply. This will allow you to provide the necessary three-phase power to the DC motor for it to operate efficiently and safely.
