You do know in Canada we are overflowing with large numbers of industrial 240/208 to 600v transformers - even smaller ones. The problem...

I recently had to do a massive amount of research to design a Solar PV system for my friend's home. Not some little 6kw system, not even...

Perfect example. End user is not expecting hazardous voltage, and after measuring 5V across leads is left with the idea they are...

Agreed, useful and inexpensive, but never leave it plugged in. Here's an example .... those little Consew servo motors we know and lot...

Glad to hear that you got your VFD working. Were you using it to step up the voltage? I don't think that these SUSWE VFDs have a...

I hooked up the SUSWE VFD to temporary power and a small 220/440 volt 3 phase motor I had. I provided 240 Volt power from a welder plug...

I can't help directly. But I can suggest that you run the Chinese through various translators. Some are better than others and often...

I purchased a 3 phase pedestal grinder a couple of months ago that looks a lot like the one you have. The nameplate had 220/440 Volt on...

It's an interesting solution. I'm currently batting O fer on Import VFD's and don't want to take another pitch though. I've always...

Nice choice in beer my friend, Very nice!

Thanks for all the answers - very helpful. As others have guessed, the VFDs shown in my posting are not CSA approved; they just have...

I run motors at 50% of rated voltage and they did not overheat - they were just super anemic. I think at 50% voltage the actual power...

I was told 20% +- rated voltage and I took the sparky at his word and ran 440 motors on 525 3ph. There were no abnormal heat issues, and...

Correct you can have CSA or other approved safety agency come do a "special inspection" and apply a CSA sticker. Applicable for low...

I think I remember reading/hearing that if a fire/damage to the house can be traced back to a non conforming device your insurance may...
