I got my hands on a cheap Variable Frequency Drive that I was hoping to experiment with. It's a Yaskawa GPD205 (here's a link to the manual: https://www.yaskawa.com/delegate/ge...2&cmd=documents&documentName=TM4502GPD205.pdf) and it puts out three phases over three wires. Since there's no forth neutral wire I'm assuming it's delta 3 phase power and not wye but the manual doesn't state either way. Could I connect a single phase 120V motor by connecting it to two of the three wires? I know with a wye connected source you can connect a single phase motor between one of the phases and neutral but I'm not sure how to do the same with a delta source where the is no neutral.
Assuming there is a way to make the connection what would happen if it is indeed a wye source that's missing the neutral and not a delta source?
Thanks,
Harry
