Supply voltages used overseasgreenspun.com : LUSENET : Elevator Problem Discussion : One Thread |
Hello, i am curious as to the power supply voltages used for elevators in the U.K and Austrailla i know in the U.S it is normally 208/3/60 or 480/3/60 as i believe in the U.K. the normal lighting voltage is 220 v Thanks

The supply voltage in Australia is 415v 3phase, 240v single phase, both 50Hz. Although I have heard we are going to change to 400/230v , but that was only a rumour.

a rumour??? it already varys between 380-420.......why change now???....god knows what it would do to reliability if it did drop lower.......we have enough probs now......(yes I know it was a joke)

u.k same as australia 3 phase 415, single 240 50 hz..how unusual america different to every where else....

3 ph 415 Vac and 1ph 220-240 Vac both 50Hz Safety circuits in general area transformed from this down to 110V ac.Central europe want Uk to drop 1ph down to 200Vac and 3Ph 400Vac, Although as u know drop volts and increase current so most uk wiring probably wont take the load, hope this is of use
