	Single-phase electric power - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Due to the greater availability of single phase power compared to three phase there has been demand for powerful motors that can work off it and therefore the designs of induction motors for single-phase power incorporate special features to attain starting torque that would not otherwise be possible with only single phase power.
		The generation of AC electric power is commonly three phase, in which the waveforms of three supply conductors are offset from one another by 120°.
		Note that true two phase power, meaning the simultaneous provision of sine wave and cosine wave electricity (that is, 90 degrees out of phase) is no longer widely used.

	Basic Electricity - Wikibooks
		Shaded-pole synchronous motors are a class of AC motor that uses single phase electric power to convert electric power to mechanical energy.
		The generation of AC electric power is commonly three phase, in which the waveforms of three supply conduits are offset from one another by 120°.
		The utility wants your power factor to be as close to 1 as possible, and businesses are penalized if they cannot achieve a target set by the utility, as the transmission losses are nearly the same for both active and reactive power consumed.

	Three-Phase
		The power is applied steadily as in DC circuits, not in pulses as in single-phase AC circuits.
		If you are transmitting a certain amount of power single-phase, adding one more conductor operated at the same line voltage and current and using three-phase will increase the power transmitted by 72% with only a 50% increase in the amount of copper and losses.
		Electrical phase is measured in degrees, with 360° corresponding to a complete cycle.

	SINGLE to 3 PHASE CONVERTER
		For 220 VAC single phase systems this is 2 wires (a 2 pole switch), for 3 phase systems this is 3 wires (a 3 pole switch.) Since the phase converter is supplied with single phase power it can use a 2 pole disconnect or 2 of the 3 poles of a 3 pole switch.
		If the mechanical means are used, power to the idler is not applied until after the motor is spinning and the rope or power to the single phase motor is removed.
		The single phase 220 VAC input is brought in on lines 1 and 2, labeled L1 and L2 in figure 1.

	Building a DC Drive for the Bridgeport Spindle
		Phase converters are both inefficient in the use of the electric power, and reduce the shaft power available from the motor.
		To mount the DC drive controller and power connections, I bent and flattened some 1/2" thin-wall electrical conduit (EMT) using a conduit bender and arbor press, and attached it to the motor where the baseplate would attached with 5/16" screws.
		The primary power in a vertical milling machine is an electric motor driving the spindle.

	How Things Work - Electric Power Distribution
		Each power wire is at 120 volts AC with respect to the neutral wire, meaning that its electric potential fluctuates up and down with respect to the neutral wire and behaves as though, on average, it were 120 volts away from the potential of the neutral wire.
		Because the amount of power that a wire loses is proportional to the square of the current passing through it, this high-voltage, low-current electricity wastes very little power in the transmission line on its way across country to your city.
		Transfers of this sort are important because many electric power systems have incompatible circuits--one circuit may use large currents of low voltage electricity while another circuit may use small currents of high voltage electricity.

	ipedia.com: Three-phase electric power Article
		All three phases are typically used in large industrial motors as this is the most efficient way to transmit large amounts of electrical power.
		The power transmission grid is organised so that each phase carries the same magnitude of current out of the power station; the currents returning from the customers' premises to the power station all share the neutral wire, but the three-phase system ensures that the sum of the returning currents is approximately zero.
		At the power station an electrical generator converts mechanical power into a set of alternating electric currents, one from each electromagnetic coil or winding of the generator.

		The solid waste director said the conversion of the balers to single-phase electric power is not only an additional cost to the solid waste district, but he added that the balers do not perform at full efficiency under that scenario.
		The district currently uses four such balers, and Mayer said each of those units has been converted at the time of purchase to operate using the single-phase power that currently services the transfer station.
		Funds for the installation of the three-phase electric line were transferred from money set aside for waste hauling and landfill dumping.

	How Things Work - Electric Motors
		And in the "Center-Tapped Grounded Delta" arrangement, the voltage difference between any pair of phases is 240 VAC and the voltage difference between a single phase and neutral is 120, 120, and 208 VAC respectively (yes, the three phases behave differently in this third arrangement).
		In the standard "Wye" arrangement, the typical voltage difference between any pair of phases is 208 VAC and the voltage difference between any single phase and ground is 120 VAC.
		The electricity leaving the generator still has the right frequency alternating current, but it voltage is somewhat lower than normal and the light bulbs it powers glow relatively dimly--a brown-out.

	CEC PIER Buildings - Increased Energy Efficiency of Air Conditioners Through Power Electronics
		Final product is an electronic controller for air conditioner and heat pump compressor motors that has two major design characteristics: 1) it converts single-phase electric power to three-phase for running a three-phase motor and 2) it converts a single-speed motor to a three-speed motor (not part of initial work plan).
		Develop and test a power electronics/motor technology that will permit the use of lower-cost, more efficient, 3-phase power motors with single-phase power sources.
		The purpose of this project is to develop an energy-efficient electronic control system by which air conditioners and heat pumps with single-phase compressor motors can be operated more energy efficiently using three-phase motors.
