15 hp 3P motor run on 10 HP Desco Panel?
Please forgive my ignorance but in the interest of possibly saving
money, can I use the 15 HP motor I already have with my 10HP Desco panel without too much adverse consequence? The idler is a 208V "soft start" type. I'd be willing to do a pony motor start if that is an issue with such a setup What consequences do you foresee in terms of voltage/amp output and heat if any? I am trying to run a 3 HP Monarch lathe. I may have to run my Brown and Sharp mill also although not necessarily simultaneously. All advise and perspectives greatly appreciated. |
