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.

Can you run single phase 230 from one side of 480 volt 3 phase?
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.
Can a 230 460 volt 3 phase motor be connected to a 277 480 volt 3 phase circuit?
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.

How can you hook a 230v 3 phase lathe to 480v 3 phase incoming power?
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.
What is the voltage rating of a motor on a 3 phase 4 wire 277V lighting circuit?
If the motor is a three phase the most likely voltage the motor operates on will be 480 volts.
Can a 380volt's 3 phase motor can be converted to 230volt's three phase motor?
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.

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.
Can you run a 480 volt machine with 600 volt incoming voltage?
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.

Display the ability to wire a 480 motor?
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.
I have a coolant motor with 420 volts in Lathe Machine but the supply voltage will be 480 volts. Can 420 volts 50Hz coolant motor can use in 480 volts 60Hz?
No, it is not recommended to use a 420-volt motor rated for 50Hz in a 480-volt system with 60Hz frequency. The motor may not be designed to handle the higher voltage and frequency, which could result in overheating or damage to the motor. It is best to use a motor that is rated for the specific voltage and frequency of the system.
What is 230 increased 250?
It is: 230+250 = 480

How many amps will a 3 hp motor pull on 230 volts?
It depends on the voltage of the motor, and whether it is single-phase or 3-phase. A 120 VAC 2HP single phase motor draws almost 20 amps, a 240 VAC single-phase 2HP motor draws about 10 amps. A 480 VAC 2HP three-phase motor only draws about 6 amps.
What voltage reading would you get from a 277 480 volt system?
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.
Can you get 120 volts from a 480 volts 3 phase Y generator?
NO, the 480 Volts Y -- is 4 wire system, with three wires which are hot legs @ 480 volts between each three hot legs. A mid tap is a neutral leg (ground) the white wire. Which gives 277 volts between it and any of the three hot legs. so a 4wire 480 volt Y system. Gives 480 /277 volts.
