How to connect single-phase power source to 3-phase motor
It's not optimal but there is a way to run small 3-phase induction motors at reduced torque from a single phase supply.
It's called &quot;Steinmetz connection&quot; (Steinmetz being one of the developers of said motors). In short you can use a capacitor to create a 'fake' phase from the supply line. Search the web for formulas and details.
