Hi guys, 1st post so be gentle with me.
I have a hardinge lathe that needs 440v 3 phase & neutral.
I am picking up a site transformer tomorrow 230v to 110v 5kva that i am hoping to run backwards either before or after the motor to get about 480v
if the above is ok how do i know the 3 phase motor i am buying will do the job, there seems to be a few differant connection set ups with 3 6 9 and 12 connections i have seen so far & 240v/440v or 400v 0r 415v.
I have done a search or 2 but there is so much info i'm having trouble getting at the data i need.
Cheers
