I have been asked if I can wire a motor for a car lifter in a domestic garage, however the motor is 3 phase and only single phase is available in the property. Is it possible to use a single phase to 3 phase inverter to power this motor? I will attach photos of the motor and its output.
I have a single phase stainless steel pasteuriser that has two control boxes attached to it. One box houses the control for the electronics and motor for the mixing paddle. The other box houses the supply to the water jacket immersion heater. The immersion heater is 1.5kw single phase and is...
Assuming that you measure the windings for a power transformer, for example:
A-B: 2,258 ohms
B-C: 2,262 ohms
A-C: 2,250 ohms, how do you calculate the tolerances for these? What formula do you use? You consider as reference the highest or the lowest value from every 2 readings?
I just wanna...
Hi I have a question hoping I can get some help. I wanted to know if there is a 400V 3 phase supply (A/A/A) terminated on the primary side of a TMD breaker can you take 2 phases from the secondary side of the breaker (A/A) to create a 400V supply only excluding E/N and use to power up your...
I have an old Migatronic Automig X 200 welder configured as 380V 3-phase unit.
Migatronic for spec.
I have a 220V 3-phase point in my garage, but that does not work well, obviously.
What would be the best option to get this welder to work?
Would it be possible to rewire it so it can work on my...

What can be worse than electrical installations on a farm, or in a pub?...... Chippys!
Got a phone call from my local.... Lights and kitchen equipment not working... needs checked by a sparky before Scottish Power would attend. She'd blown a main fuse!
So ive been tasked with working out the...
Hi
Looking at a job currently adding a 3 phase solar installation but the distribution board is full obviously a new board is the best option but if the customer isn't interested in this what do people usually do? Add a small 3 phase board and use Henley blocks, I've never seen this done but I...
Hi, leading on from my question the other day about running the 3 phase compressor off my 8.5kW generator I have since got my hands on a 240v to 3 phase converter. My question being the 3 phase output from the converter has only 4 wires/ seperatly cores coming out where as my compressor...
I have above mentioned breaker which does not have any markings to show which is the neutral pathway, I wish to fit it directly above a 3 phase 4 way surge protector which has its neutral on the right hand side and so would ideally want to connect the neutral above it on the right hand side of...
Hi - first-time post from a complete novice.
I want to install a 24kw electric boiler on my property but that size requires Phase 3 supply. Northern Powergrid don't install Phase 3 in my area (off grid) but can increase capacity via a split supply. Can I run a phase 3 boiler from a split...
Hello,
I am currently working with 2 separate circuits, one for the dust extraction and another for a circular saw.
Both circuits have an isolator with 3 phase and neutral then each goes off to its own dol starter.
I was wondering if there is a way to make them both turn on at the same time...
It's coming out anyway so it's a rhetorical question.
What do you you all think of this?
Bits of wire used to bridge the bus bars and don't single phase consumer units need a linked switched line and neutral?
Gday lads. Have a question about a 3 phase shed feed.
I have a roll on 16mm2, 3 core and earth orange circular. Can I run a 16mm2 SDI neutral in the same conduit.
And anything I need to comply with in SNWR.
3 phase Will be for shed and mainly to run welder
I (well, the MCS installer) obtained approval under G59 back in 2015 for 11.5 kW of grid connection on a single phase. 12kW of panels into two 6kW inverters. I'm in a fairly remote area. Not aware of any other solar arrays feeding into my local pole mounted transformer.
I'd now like to add...
My daughter lives in a flat in London in converted circa 1900 5 storey terrace in Bethnal Green. She is considering getting a Stiebel Eltron instant water heater fitted, however if she wants one that is powerful enough for a bath, she needs 3 phase. Are flats like houses in that each flat is on...
