It depends on the device, if for instances the machine is a pc, laptop mobile phone charger or anything that has a modern switch mode power supply built into it then you can use it on anything between 110 and 240, it will auto select, i don't recommend attaching a machine that is rated at 240v to a 460v supply, you will need to contact the manufacture to determine operating parameter's.
Unless it is a dual voltage motor you don't. If it is a dual voltage motor look inside the motor junction box for a diagram of the correct connections.
Yes, the appliance rating is a nominal voltage withing the 220 to 240 volt range. The 240 volt rating usually represents the maximum amount of voltage that can be applied to the appliance.
No, you will not obtain 230 volts. From a wye connected three phase 480 volt supply, 277 volts can be obtained from one phase leg and the neutral on the wye connection. 480 volts/1.73 (sq. root of 3) = 277 volts.
Yes, that's possible, but only for low-powered motor. You know that in order to start, the stator must be supplied with voltages that are shows shift phase between them, so the trick is to use a capacitor (since it shifts phase current) to simulate a 3-phase source. As indicated in the following picture: http://freecircuitdiagram.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/Enabling-3-Phase-Motor-Operates-with-Single-Phase-Supply.gif
Inspect all motor labels and see if they are dual voltage motors. If they are, they should have a label on them telling you how to convert the motors for 480 volt. This is a relative simple task. Converting to 480 volts will lower the motor current to half of the 230 volt rating, so you will have to change the overload heaters in the individual motor starters. You need to do this to protect the motors in case of overloading. Last the control transformer will need to be reconnected for 480 volt.
If the motor is a three phase the most likely voltage the motor operates on will be 480 volts.
Only if you want to damage it. "277" Volt 3-phase will usually mean 277 from each phase to neutral, and 480 from phase to phase. By "230 3-phase", you likely mean 120 phase-to-neutral, and 208 phase-to-phase. If you really mean 230, then you are probably NOT talking about a three phase motor.

Yes, but the 600 volts would have to be transformed down to 480 volts. Direct connection to the motor with 600 volts would overheat the motor to destruction.

No, you'll burn your lathe motor up immediately. (it might last 30 seconds before it literally smokes.) You'll need to buy and install a "buck-boost" type transformer to drop the voltage from 480 to 420V. Best to have a qualified commercial electrician wire it up if you value your lathe.
I've wired hundreds if not thousands of 480 volt motors. That should display my ability. It's not rocket science, it's just an electric motor.P.S. Every one I wired worked first time.
It is: 230+250 = 480

From a three phase four wire distribution system the voltages would be as follows. From L1 to N - 277 volts. From L2 to N - 277 volts. From L3 to N - 277 volts. From L1 to L2 - 480 volts. From L2 to L3 - 480 volts. From L3 to L1 -480 volts.
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The 277 volt heater can be wired to a single pole breaker in a 3 phase 4 wire 480 volt distribution panel. The breaker should be sized to the amperage draw of the heater. 277 volts is the star point (wye) voltage of a 480 3 phase system. 480 / 1.73 = 277 volts. The third answer is not correct, two phase legs of a 480 volt system will give you 480 volts. It is the phase leg to ground (neutral) that gives you the 277 volts.A 277 Volt heater or device may not be wired to a 480 Volt circuit or box. A 277 Volt device may only be wired to a circuit rated for 277V/480V equipment.2 legs of 480 volts will give you 277. But since you don't know the answer you probably shouldn't be doing it! Please don't kill yourself, hire a licensed electrician.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energizedIF YOU ARE NOT REALLY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
