Phase conversion

["Mordecai Dunst"<mdunst@smtplink.coh.org>]

     You raise an important point.  I have a one HP 3phase motor running a 
     Bridgeport Mill.  I used a solid state Phase convertor (rated at 
     1-3HP) -but, found that the motor ran "hot".  I needed to replace the 
     motor.  The ineficiency of the solid state unit precluded the motors'
     running well.  I now have a rotatory convertor (more money) but more
     efficient.
