Maybe YOU are talking about an RPC, but the subject of the OP is " VFD
question "


It doesn't matter, since the transformer goes before anything else.
It operates at line voltage, and in Gunner's case at a constant 60 Hz.


It does matter, a set of transformers can most certainly come after a
RPC, if you only have buck transformers large enough to handle the three
phase current, not the single phase current.


Why would you put three after the RPC when one at the input ddoes it
right? Are you that stupid?


I'm not stupid, but you may be if you are that clueless as to the
context and the point I made about the transformer sizing. If you have
for example three 1KVA transformers on hand but no 3KVA transformers,
it's a pretty easy choice to use the three you have downstream rather
than buy a new transformer to use upstream.


OK, if a hack job pleases you.

Remember ......... This multiple transformer idea was in response to a
VFD Question.
A VFD Question ... GET IT?

The original question was about a VFD.
The response was to add transformers to the output.

Do not expect to make it into a sensible discussion. It will not
happen.



Certainly not on this newsgroup, where most posters think 'Ohm's law'
is merely a rough guideline and that the laws of physics don't apply to
them.
