Single Phase AC to Three Phase AC


Converter Circuit
Last Updated on June 20, 2019 by Swagatam 10 Comments
The post explains an interesting single phase AC to 3 phase AC
circuit. The idea was requested by Mr. Sachin Sinalkar.

Technical Specifications
Hi dear sir,
is there any way by which we can convert single phase 230V supply
into three phase. i had try to ask question on your web site but
couldn't succeed.
i know that you can do it.i got one diagram from internet the name
written on diagram that 230v ac to 400v dc power supply.
i had try according to ckt diagram but it make 700v ac supply only at
one time but after next it won't worked. at next time my electricity
board burn.
Actually it is not for any purpose just one thought came in my mind
and i think if it possible it will be really helpful for all of us since in
village there is so much of load shading problem.
But one think good in few villages that at night for homes single phase
supply available of farmer's crop wasted since they couldn't supply
water to there crop if this happen it will be miracle.
The Design

I am not very sure regarding the working feasibility of the presented


design, I hope it would function as expected from it.
The circuit is basically a voltage amplifier which is able to amplify a
source input voltage to the level that's applied across the mosfets.
Three identical circuits need to be built for implementing the proposed
single phase to three phase converter circuit design idea.
Making an accurate three phase input source was difficult to design
and implement therefore I thought of a rather unusual method of
generating the required three phase input pattern.
Since normally the load at the output of the proposed design would be
a three phase motor so initially this motor could be rotated manually
such that it behaves like a three phase alternator generating the
required initial sample three phase voltage for the amplifier input.
As shown in the circuit diagram, we need three such identical circuits
connected with the three wires of the motor integrated with their
outputs.
We can see that a feedback link from the mosfet output been applied
to the input of the amplifier.
With the given conditions if the connected three phase motor is
rotated at the specified frequency, a sample equivalent
voltage/frequency would be fed back at the input.
This input would then get amplified and returned at the required high
potential AC voltage to the motor, locking its rotation in that particular
frequency, once this takes place the manual rotation could be stopped
and hopefully the latching would sustain the influence as long as the
330V DC continues to exist across the mosfets.
The manual rotation of the connected three phase motor could be done
through an external single phase motor coupled with the three phase
motor using gears which could be detached by some suitable
mechanism as soon the system gets latched.
Of course this is just an idea from my part, if there's any feasibility in
this idea it can enhanced or improved through suitable modifications.
The left hand side driver section requires 12V DC which can be
acquired via a standard AC/DC adapter while the mosfet supply can
be obtained from a bridge rectifier network directly connected with the
existing 220 or 120V single phase source.

we are in solar PV power system. A house is having 5KWp
connected load and it is having three phase connection from
Electricity Company. Three phase solar inverter for 5KWp are
not available from standard manufacturer. How could I use single
phase inverter for three phase connection by electricity
company. Can I use phase converter

you will have to modify the single phase inverter into a 3 phase
inverter by adding a phase converter stage and power driver
stages into it, externally nothing can be done to make this
possible.

the shown 330V is acquired after rectifying the 220V AC supply
and is fed to the motor via the mosftes.
