I have a 220 v 3 phase, 3 horsepower motor that I would like to use as a
rotary phase converter. I have a 25, 35, 40 and 40 uf capacitors. I need help
on how to wire these.

Thank you.

Here is a link to the Frugal Machinist's (Roy) Rotary Phase Converter
page. This man's website is one of the most informative
and interesting I have seen.
I used his plans, had a little problem with the relay, so I use a
momentary switch in it's place.... The unit I built using his plans works
flawlessly.
