OK folks,
I'm new but have a question. I have a rotary phase converter to power my machines. Sometimes it switches directions (polarity?). I turn machine on, check direction, then turn switch to other direction if necessary. (I hope this is a clear description). This is OK except on the K&T in which the motor must turn the same direction all the time, then I have to switch wires. Question is, can this problem be eliminated? Am I doing something wrong?
