I have a question about starting and running a 25 hp 3 phase motor.
I have a small shop beside my home and I have a 20 hp rotary phase converter. I know that this will not start the 25 hp motor on a bullard 42 inch vertical lathe that I have. Is there a way to bump this up without buying a larger phase converter? I also have a house and a mobile home next to my shop all separate sources of power yet comming from the same pole.
One person that I talked to said that I could run two 110 volt lines from my shop power and one 110 volt line from my house or mobile home to run this moter. I wasen't sure about this and wanted to confirm this answer with someone that knew a lot more then I do. Can this be done safely and will it run this motor without burning it up?
