Re: electrical help needed: kinda ot

You have 220 vac - 3 PHASE power available? Or is the motor converted to
single phase?
You can run 220 vac single phase power through a transformer and get 440
vac - SINGLE PHASE.
You can't get THREE PHASE power from SINGLE PHASE without a "phase converter".

breath. thats why they said a step up transformer from 220 to 440 would be
the way to go just hook it up
