Transformer for Motors

[LincHawk]

I need to feed some 480v motors. The customer only has a 120/208v service. I was going to quote installing (1) transformer for two motors.

Can I put two feeds off the secondary side and a disconnect for each motor and feed off the one transformer instead of having a transformer for both motors?

The answer to your question is yes.

What horse power are the motors? It may be a better option to wire the motors for low voltage or replace them instead of going with a transformer

I was just informed by the customer that they are able to be wired high or low voltage so I will not need the transformers. It also sounded like new motors would have been cheaper also if they didn’t have both voltage options.
