Sorry if this is out there already, the few threads I found with keywords did not quite cover it. A client wishes to install some European single phase equipment for testing - EVC's requiring 230vac with a grounded conductor. What is the optimum way to provide a 230vac 20 SP circuit with the necessary neutral wire? I am thinking a buck boost transformer to bump up two legs of the 208 to around 230, then an isolation transformer to create the grounded conductor?
If this works, should the grounding of the secondary conductor be isolated from the primary grounding?
I am also guessing I would need to feed the setup with a two pole 30amp and then provide protection on the secondary side with a SP 20 amps? That is more of a question than a guess. Actual load is 230vac 50/60hz 16 amps. Would it be safer to use a 2pole breaker or fuses on the secondary?
In the event they want more circuits available, is there a good way to convert all 3 phases to 230 and provide a neutral.? Maybe a 100amp primary feed and a wye secondary at 230?
Thank you
