How to work out which capacitor I require to run a three phase motor from a single phase supply.

Hi I have a three phase motor that I wish to run from a single phase supply.

Does anyone know what the formula is for working out the correct capacitance.

Thank you

  • Yes that's what I was worried about. I don't want to fry my motor.

    I'm trying to set up a demo for the apprentices.

    Just a basic connecting up motors. Trouble is I haven't really

    done much motor work my years have been spent mainly

    Doing domestic work.
