Hello

I just purchased a 75KW Diesel genset from BC Canada that is configured to 600 Volts, has a 50KW Transformer for 240V and 120V single phase also.

I need 480 Volts 3 phase to run my plasma cutter, it uses 9A says on tag at 480.

I have seen where you can buck with a 480:120 Delta using 2 single phase transformers. I am electrically challenged can someone make a diagram or explain to me the size of transformer and wiring to do this?

My original plan was to rewire the Genset to 480 if I could but its all configured to 600V with 50KV transformer etc so thats not a good option.

Thanks
