If I'd need to buy a 30 or higher volts power supply, then I could live with that. My question is more if the motor (taking for granted here it can be wound as a three-phase one) would behave the same as if driving a proper one at 230V. Thus I'm trying to use this as a test-bench. I'm sure you'll understand Charles, that buying a motor and a vfd is not what I'm after here. | |

I've seen a 208-volt or so motor run from a 24v or 30v DC bench supply feeding an experimental VFD. So maybe the motor can be wound for as low a voltage as physically practical, and then undervolted. | |
