Re: Poll: The Next FWW Tool Test

3 phase motors are significantly cheaper than their equivalent HP single phase motors. However, for most of us, getting 3 phase power from the pole to our home is cost prohibitive.
3 phase rotary converters are an option but some 10 HP converters won't start a high inertia 10 HP load (planers for example).
How about a tool test on 3 phase converters?
Please include some typical utility hookup charges / monthly charges, 3 phase options for the home shop, load matching, etc.
