as above, I have an old welder I’d like to get going and use, if I can’t then there’s no point in it taking up space any longer!
We’ve dragged it out and dusted it off this afternoon, I knew it was 415V, but it’s wired with up with what looks like a length of 6mm single phase cable, on the front it says 415V 1ph, so......I am assuming that the only way I can achieve this is to connect one wire, the brown live wire to L1, and the other wire, the blue which would be neutral on single phase, to L2.
But surely this is then dual phase or 2 phase?
How else can 415v 1hp be achieved?
Anyone have any experience of this kind of thing?
Any ideas are much appreciated
