[QUOTE="alfapat, post: 483609, member: 31564"] Hello , new on here , I have a 4 Post lift with a 3ph motor , but no 3 phase supply. If I bought a 3ph generator how many amps should it deliver to cope with the initial power requirement . The motor delivers 2.2 kw and has two amp figures stamped on it 9.13/5.19 .Its 1 hp motor. 220v supply requirement If one phase takes 9 amps at any one time then surely that' s the requirement . At present looking at a gen that produces 6500 watts and 4.5 kw .It has 3 230v outlets and one 380 v . If my calculations are correct at any 230v outlet there should be 28 amps ? Is this suitable please, I am told or advised that that generator doesn't match anywhere near it and I need 9.8kw. [/QUOTE]
