I wish to purchase the transformer to run a 230VAC single phase compressor motor on 208VAC service.
During the course of a previous thread it was determined that my electrical service consists of 2 phases of a 3-phase 240V feed. Hot-to-hot voltage I am getting at my breaker panel is 208VAC. This is all USA 60hz. I'm not familiar with specifications for transformers, so I would appreciate some assistance in determining the specs for the purchase of a Buck-Boost transformer, so I can run the compressor without burning up the motor.
I've found a surplus Buck-Boost transformer with these specs: ACME brand,Catalog #: T-1-81047, Style: ER, Primary Volts: 120 x 240, Secondary Volts: 12 x 24, Single Phase, .050 KVA, 50/60 Hz, Winding Rise 80, Degree C. Enclosure type: 3R Outdoor, Insulation System: B-3223-M Class 130
Would that suit my application? If not, what specs do I need to correctly and safely boost my service to
230VAC? Once again, many thaks for the assistance! Neal
