I am needing to install a CamLock power box to provide power to some equipment. Located in a commercial office building.
The equipment is a robotic arm that requires 208V, 3 Phase Power, 30 Amps max. It comes with a controller and transformer.
The overall power flow is as follows:

Could you please assist an end-user with limited knowledge:-
The system we installed in our new-build is 7.83 Kw of PV with a 'Solax X3' 3 Phase inverter. A later addition was a Tesla Powerwall 2 with the later gateway. Following a series of short (2min) power cuts and lights flickering UKPN...
This might sound like a stupid question so apologies in advance.
So I had a random thought in my head.
So I was wondering if I was to use a single phase motor to spin a three phase generator to create three phase power, would you be able to create more power then the single phase motor is...
I have a metal lathe, 1.5hp, 3phase, 575v motor. Can I just replace the motor with a single phase,220v motor? Would all the lathe wiring , switches, relays work? IF so, what HP motor should I buy? Thanks,
Hi
I have a MFT1553 Mega tester. Is there a feature on the tester to test 3phase RCBOs when there’s no neutral present? Pretty sure mot. Was wondering if i could temporarily connect a neutral on a Wander lead and use the three wire test method?
Thanks
John
I currently have this,
Primary inductance on an AC transformer will determine the magnetizing current on the unit. Usually inductance is relatively high so the magnetizing current can be as equally low. This inductance can be seen as part of the magnetizing current; however, it will not be seen...
Hi there
I purchased goods to build a sauna back before Christmas and only now am I getting around to doing it.
I was just looking at the heater controller and noticed they they’ve sold me a unit that says it is for a 3 phase/400v supply. I did make clear I only had single phase as many...
As title.
Doing an EICR, have come across a couple of DBs, where the neutral goes straight onto the bar on Single phase boards.
Whats your views on this guys?
Should it have a requirement to be isolated? Is there a reg for? If so then it can be coded.
My boss thinks its dangerous. I don't, but...
I watched this vid on Youtube. Interesting. They have 3 phase supplies. Does anyone know the cost of upgrading from a single to a 3 phase domestic supply?

Hello all. I have a problem that I'm sure someone can help with. The electric motor I have (pics attached) has no ratings plate. There are no supply wires shown, just the internal connection box wiring. The picture of the wiring diagram looks to be single phase but the box wiring has me...
Good morning all, I’m afraid that I’ve come here looking for some advice with a problem I have with some vehicle lifts that I have been asked to dispose of. I have listed them for sale, but I am not sure how to determine whether they have single, or three phase motors. I am now aware that any...
