I have purchased a Boye and Emmes lathe that has an old Allis Chalmers 3 phase motor on it. There is no data plate on the motor so I have no idea what size it is. Is there any way to figure out what the horsepower is? I can't get the full load amps on it but could measure the idling current. I only have single phase power at the shop so I need to get/build a rotary phase converter.
Thanks,
Eli
