No brother, not trying to be difficult.

I have just never heard of someone calling Y phase as the individual coil itself.

I have never seen a three phase motor in the Y configuration
powered by a Y transformer, hooked up with 3 legs and the
center of the Y leg...

Jerry,

If you are running a motor on 3 phase,
and you loose connection in 1 wire,
then is not the motor now running on 1 phase?...

[Doozer]

Ok, so just an observation....
Y wound RPC motors Hummmm a lot.
Delta wound RPC motors tend to run quiet.
Is there something to that??...

[Doozer]

So Jerry, let me see if I hear you.
Delta wound RPCs make 3 phase
and Y wound RPCs make 2 phase? ? ? ? ?

Stop throwing around this "split phase" garbage.
Neutral does not enter into...

Throw their stock in and turn it down.
Perfect.
Sounds to me you are allowing people with minimal training to operate a machine
that...

When I first started with my shltty Atlas lathe,
a 4 jaw seemed like a mystery.
Now I dial parts in a 4 jaw within half a thou
in about...

[Doozer]

You need a torch hot enough to turn the parts red to break the bonds of rust.
Like oxy-ace.
Nothing else is likely to work.

I want a pickup with a 10 foot bed, just to piss everybody off.
I have 2 old fire trucks. A 1953 and a 1967.
