Voltage on Phase Converter
I checked the voltage on my phase converter (3HP 3Phase Baldor)today
and got 122v,122v,and 180v on the wild leg. Is 120v all I should be getting on the 2 lines from the 220v line from the breaker box even after they are fed through he converter? I thought that the converter would boost these a little bit. Thanks for the help. -Steve |

Thanks for the help. -Steve I think you are measuring the voltages incorrectly. You need to measure line to line, three ways, not line to ground. The 120 volt number you mention implies that you are measuring line to ground.
