Yes, it can be wired for either/or. That should work fine.

I'll be following this because I need a phase converter also. I take it the capasitors are 220vac. Also how many do you need?

Ok I have two motor options for making the convertor, looking for input on which motor to get.
both 10 hp

motor 1 3450rpm 208 volt

motor 2 1750 rpm 230/460
