I'm probably gonna get slated for saying this but I did this (converted a 3 phase to single phase car ramp) about 2 weeks ago and it was easy for a spark, although I wouldn't suggest just having a pop yourself.... :75:

Converting can be simple in some set-ups but making sure its fail safe and meets safety criteria specified for ramp gear is a whole different ball game... Ill be interested to see their defense in court if someone gets crushed because of an Electrical fault or failure... knowing the standards protects you not knowing is a game of risk although it may still seem to work fine.
