As I am doing research into wiring 3 phase circuits, I keep coming up short. I mean, things are still a little hazy, and I would love help nailing down the details.
1.) Assuming I am using 10 gauge wire, do I need 3 conductors and a ground, or do I also need a neutral? For some reason I seem to be getting mixed messages in this department.
2.) What's the least expensive way to get power to the four 3 phase tools. Meaning, how do I connect four loads to the one power source with the least expense? Do I need a 3 phase load center (breaker box), or do i just run all the tools into one junction box and feed it directly from the converter?
3.) Do you have any pictures of your 3 phase wiring/circuits?
Thanks for any help you can give!
