If you have a 220v three phase delta system, the phase-to-phase voltage is 220v single phase; hence, no conversion is necessary. Don't worry about 220-240v rating, the voltage rating is nominal. Your 110v single phase has actually already be taken from a center-tapped transformer on your three phase system.

Yes, a 480 to 240 3 phase delta to delta step down transformer can be used to step up voltage in the reverse.

<<>> However Transformers should always be used with the correct voltage on each winding.

Yes, a transformer is needed. The transformer will be a 480 to 120 volt step down transformer. Connect two legs of the three phase supply to the primary side of the transformer. From the secondary side of the transformer there will be a 120 volt single phase source. These transformers in the range of 50 to 150 VA are used for instrument control voltage supply. A 50 VA transformer will give you 50/120 = .46 amps on the secondary side, a 150 VA transformer will give you; 150/120 = 1.25 amps. For larger power transformers, a secondary load requirement is needed to calculate the transformer in VA or KVA.

With a step-down transformer 240 to 110 or a step-up transformer 110 to 240. Many modern devices are dual voltage selectable

Yes, transformers are reversible and can be used in either direction if wired properly.

If the voltages are alternating current then the answer is yes. This is what transformers are used for, to either step the voltage up as in your case, or to step the voltage down.

How do you get single phase 440 from three phase 440?

You Don't. 440volt 3-phase is actually 480 volts, taking a single phase gives 277Volts single phase. To get single phase 440 you would use one leg of three phase 440/760 three phase power.


How do you convert single phase kva to three phase kva?

Va=volts x amps. The K stands for one thousand. So 1 Kva is one thousand watts. So 415v times 120a= 49,800 what's. You divide that by a thousand and you get 49.8. So it would be 49.8 Kva.


How do you calculate 440v phase?

Let's get the terminology correct. A 'phase voltage' is measured across a phase, whereas a line voltage is measured between two lines. So there is no such thing as a 'phase to phase' voltage -it's a line to line voltage (hence the term 'line voltage').


Is 126 volts three phase?

126 volts sounds very close to a standard home voltage of 120 volts, which is single phase. 208v is a three phase voltage, and is the lowest I have seen. 240 is single phase (usually center tapped, so in your house you have +120, and -120 referenced to the neutral which provides the normal 240 for dryers, stoves, etc.).


How do you convert 3 phase star configuration 380 volts supply into 220 volts supply?

The process of obtaining 220 volts from 380 volts is quite simple. 380 volts is a three phase four wire system voltage. The 220 volts is obtained by taking the sq. root of 3 which equals 1.73 and dividing it into the phase voltage. 380/1.73 = 220 volts. This holds true with any three phase four wire voltage system. 208/1.73 = 120 volts, 415/1.73 = 230 volts, 480/1.73 = 277 volts and 600/1.73 = 347 volts. This lower voltage is present on any of the three phase legs of the three phase system to the neutral which is grounded on a wye connection.

How do you convert 230v to 208 volts single phase?

A source of 208 volts can be obtained from any two legs of a three phase four wire 208 volt system. The two legs are classed as single phase 208 volts. The lead tags can be L1-L2, L2-L3, or L3-L1 all of which will give you 208 volts. Any of these lead tags to the grounded star point (wye) will give you 120 volts.

How will a 3 phase panel give you 110 volts and 220 volts?

A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.

Three phase voltage in india?

It is 230V single phase and 440V in 3 phase system at 50 Hz.AnswerIf the single-phase voltage is 230 V, then the three-phase voltage must be 400 V, not 440 V. The line voltage is 1.732 times the phase voltage.


How do you obtain a 230 volts single phase supply from a 400 volts three phase four wire supply?

You can use a transformer to step down the voltage from 400 volts three phase to 230 volts single phase. Connect one of the phases and the neutral of the three phase supply to the transformer primary winding and then connect the secondary winding to get the desired 230 volts single phase supply.

Can you buy a converter to connect to 240 single phase and convert it to 208 3 phase for electric grill?

If you mean by a converter, a transformer, to change the voltages then yes 240 volts can be transformed with a step down transformer from 240 volts to 208 volts in a single phase system. To answer the question single phase can not be converted to three phase without additional expensive equipment. One piece of equipment that will do it is a variable frequency drive. Another piece of equipment is a roto-phase. Either of these pieces of equipment would probably cost more than the grill you are trying to supply a voltage to.
