Hi,
Just found a table saw on craigslist that's single phase, 320 volts. I have 220 in my garage. How does one get 320 volts?
Thanks,
Aaron

not sure. was thinking one leg of three phase, but that's not right - one leg of 480 to neutral is 277V, and one leg of 600 is 346V

You get 320V by being dyslexic.

Have your wife distract you while you are typing 220.
Eb dyselxci while typing 120?

Oh, *volts*!
Sorry...misunderstood the question.

That's easy. Wire a 220 line and a 110 line together in series.

So... you responded to a question to say you don't know...
Wait a s e c o n d .... ... you're right, for a change! -----

Actually that would be the simplest way to do it if 320 was actually needed by just wiring a small transformer in boost configuration so the lines are added.

The saw is almost certainly says 230V on its power spec plate. 220V service actully often measures 230-240 volt. He just twisted the 2 and the

Just a moment though. Here in Canada; I was given some fluorescent fixtures rated at 345 (or 347) volts 60 hertz AC. Afterwards converted a couple by changing the ballasts which had on hand, to 115v. The fixtures had been scrapped from a supermarket upgrade, which certainly would have had three phase service for their fridges freezers, perhaps commercial ovens etc. There were also IIRC some scrapped three pole breakers. Just trying to recall the voltage ratios between our domestic 115/230 volts and three phase voltages. Can anybody help with a quick tutorial? Such as; 345 volts is to say 208 volts as 115 is to ????

That stone would move about 1.5 laggards by the sound of it! That's, approximately (to nine decimal places!), 0.877641532 cubits. :-) Better than crashing a Mars Lander cos someone didn't understand metric units, eh?

Sounds like a 600 volt nominal 3 phase system
If we use 208 and 117, the ratio is 1.77, and 1.77X345 = 613.

Can't put 110 and 220 from the same supply in series though, because
110 is half of the 220. Would need transformer derived (isolated) voltage sources for sure.- Vote on answer

Actually, the ratio for three-phase voltage is the square root of three =
1.73205...208 / sqrt(3) = 120.09
345 * sqrt(3) = 597.6
