Three phase motors are a type of electric motor, and they power a multitude of things. You may encounter these motors in about any field you are involved in. From farmers to machine shop operators to business owners, sooner or later a three phase machine shows up. How do you handle that? If you don't have three phase the cost to get it is probably prohibitive. What's next? I have spent years running and testing various ways to run three phase motors on single phase power. There are a number of ways to make the phase conversion and you need to know the best way for your situation. I started with the phase conversion process in the early 90's. I had an industrial vacuum cleaner that I needed to run. The local electric shop brought out a rotary phase converter and it was unable to start the vacuum. I sought out and found a better way. It's called the transformer converter and it was cheap for me to build and worked great I started selling information about how to build one. Accumulating a few thousand customers gave me more insight into what people needed. Which turned out to be more information. Over the years my teaching has morphed into a full answer to the question "How should I run my machines?" I should point out that many times my advice to people after hearing about their situation is to buy a commercial converter. I like to be right up front with people and for some, building your own is not the answer. In those cases I feel that I am guiding those people through a maze of information and steering them to the most logical conclusion. But what about the person that wants to build their own? That's where I spend quite a bit of time and pages in the book. There are only two types of converters you can build yourself: the transformer converter and the rotary converter. Which is best for your machines? I help you decide. But of course, I take it much further than that. I show you all the parameters of what you are going to run into and what you can get away with. How to balance a rotary converter Does you power company meter really record what the rotary is using? What is the best way to raise the voltage to run motors at twice you power company volts? i detail five different ways to do that, one you have never heard of before. It's my own invention. How to make your own transformer out of commonly available cores. How to modify commercial transformers. I put special emphasis on my overseas customers and their unique needs. How to hook up the start relay. How to use capacitors and hook them up. How to build the transformer converter using either a transformer you made or a commercial transformer. Basic electrical principals and why the power company and motor manufacturers use three phase. Construction helps on how to save money putting a converter together. How to build a big welder or battery charger power supply. Using oil cooling to run larger motors with your homemade transformer. What is motor protection and how does a motor starter work? What is meant by service factor and ambient temperature and how that helps us To help illustrate some of these points I have a link in the book to videos, only for book purchasers.. A chapter detailing how you can make money in three phase conversion, not by making and selling converters on eBay but much bigger and potentially more profitable than that. This is pretty much a complete guide to running three phase motors on single phase power. It contains over 20 years of knowledge put into one master book. I hope you enjoy it and have fun with an exciting field of interest. Starting and running a 25 or 30 hp air compressor at home will get your blood flowing more than stamp collecting. This is an action hobby with thrilling results.

About the Author
My name is Doug and I just turned 67 years old. My father was an electronic engineer and I learned a lot from him. I just didn't like sitting at a desk, so I went for more hands on careers. I got into the body shop business painting cars. That's when I needed to run three phase motors. I had bad results with my first two commercial converters. I had a static converter and a rotary converter and they didn't work very well. I looked for a better solution and found the transformer converter. It worked great and I sold information on it for years. When I retired I decided to put some more time in to the information and do more experimentation. One of the things I noticed in the years of selling information was the amount of misinformation. Many times a person asks a question and people pipe in with their best answer. The problem is their best answer is not the best answer for the person seeking information. Many times I recommend that a person just buy a commercial converter. But which type of commercial converter? The more you learn about the three phase conversion process the more of an educated choice you can make. If it is to build your own converter you have come to the right place. This book is packed with information on what works and how to build a multitude of converters. Hope you enjoy the book and learn a lot.
