hello!
Guys, I am very frustrated because i can not do anything. I used to work with a single phase motor on my table saw before it has burnt.
Now, I have no other choice how to power my tool with 3ph electric motor. My father gave it to me from his farm. How to mount it together? I have only single phase.

In my opinion you would be better off to just buy a single phase motor. It will be cheaper than buying or building a "phase converter" unless of course you have three phase current available.

Two choices.

A) 1 - 3 phase converter $$$$$$$$$ :eek:

B) get a single phase motor with the correct frame/mount.

Yes I have the motor . Here it is https://www.mrosupply.com/motors/ac-mot ... 46_baldor/ I also want to search at the Craigslist. If there are any cheap models I will take it. Who can help me to select a single motor according to the characteristic of the 3 phase motor that I have.

I had brought several 1 HP TEFC Farm Duty reversible motors for the 10ERs from Surplus Center http://www.surpluscenter.com/Electrical ... 0-2906.axd. They have several 1 HP reversible motors ($150) with the 56H mounting pad that will fit the 10ER motor bracket. You may have to make a little room on the bench for the capacitors mounted on the motor, but mine did clear. It is very easy to add a DPDT motor rated switch and wires to provide reversing of these motors.

One question: What is your 'table saw'?
