Thanks
One of the most important issues in the field of refrigeration is to be able to detect the status of a compressor And thus also determine what the rules are for the terminals in a conventional system, thanks for the contribution, today's lesson is very good

I'm currently at my 4th year of treatment school this is really helpful thank you very much

Very good video. Got right into it without all the fluff. This is what I was looking for. Thank You

I'm still relatively new in the trade but I have applied myself to learn everything I can every single day. My field is residential, but one day I hope to transition into the commercial side and maybe the refrigeration side😌🤓🤔🤔

The bottom line is to know what your Source Voltage is. The quickest way to find that out is to look at the Disconnect Switch that should be installed nearby. If not a (DS), then there should be a Circuit Breaker in a Panel. A single pole and two pole breakers are considered Single Phase. And of course, a three pole breaker would obviously be 3-Phase.
In terms of Single Phase vs. Three offers 173% more power. Kind of like the difference between a 4 Cylinder Engine and a V8 Engine.

Thanks for the concise information. I assume those are AC motors. How does a DC motor differ? Is it just that the electromagnetic fields are generated on the armature instead of the stator? I'm over my head. Trying to utilize a MFR-J55WZ0BP-0114 to upgrade my drill press for low RPM high torque drilling of metal. I can't find much info that motor. It doesn't seem to have brushes, indicates 3 phases with an insulation rating of F. Yes, I did rip it out of a treadmill. :) Which came with some type of Emerson driver.

@HVACS are there any draw back from using a Single to three-phase converter Nx where there is no 3 phase available so long as it can match the kW?

[RobiBue]

I like the way when he says "ninety degrees" and the text corrects to "*120°"...
tbh, since the video is so often cut, a correction take wouldn't have been too much instead of patching the correct phase shift value text in there...

[skullduggeryafoot]

this is good info, but i really wish you'd at least leave the autogenerated captions on, my dude. some of us have auditory processing issues out here.

[Hhh-xmzi]

thank you ... can you talk about 3 phase in dc motors

[tibork]

I bought a couple of exhaust fans online that I wanted to use in my house, when they arrived they turned out to have 3-phase motors. How can I hook these to my 110V power in the house? Do I need a single to 3-phase converter? Thank you!

Can you use a single phase motor in a 3 phase system?

[stelmo]

120 degrees out of phase not 90.. just saying.

[daveeckmann]

I always try to think of 3 phase power and motor as a 3 cylinder engine...firing at every 120 deg of rotation. (if that helps any) 3 phase power has 73% more power than its 1 phase counterpart. The one that always throws me off is a 120 volt motor with neutral and a 240 volt motor with 2 hot legs are both considered single phase?? Shouldn't the 240 volt motor be 2 phase?? ...and the 120 volt w/ neutral be single phase??..LOL just sayin...GR8 job on all of your vids that I have watched so far...you have great information for sure..A+

Sir single phase 1 hp motor and three phase 1 hp motor jiyda current kon lega aur kyu jiyda current lega

[thefreshride]

May you activate captions in this video?

[lewymartain]

When this video came up and I seen and heard this guy I thought i had switched to a Radio DJ station. Some people go too far with youtube videos.

[yash-snfw]

but wich is better?? single phase or 3 phase??? any advise, im about to assemble a peanut grinder what machine phase is the right for it???

[fortvalor]

I thought three phase was one leg 120 V second leg 208 V the third leg 120 V

[dextersoul]

Would you call the 3 winding, 3 run windings technically?
