Hi
I know this is not a PLC type of question but I'd appreciate if you could answer this.
At our work we have a mixture of 1 phase and 3 phase VFD's each gives out 240 and 415 volts 3 phase respectfully (UK voltages). I came across a 1 phase inverter with the motor connected in star, in this configuration the motor would normally be connected delta.(delta 200 to 240 volts, star 380 to 415 volts)When I connected the motor in delta it did not appear to run with any difference. My questions are:
What difference would it make to the motor's running with 240v 3 phase connected to the motor in star or delta?
Are there ant advantages/disadvantages using 1 phase inverters over 3 phase inverters?
Thanks in advance for reading/replying to this.
