Can a 230 460 volt 3 phase motor be connected to a 277 480 volt 3 phase circuit?

Yes, that's possible, but only for low-powered motor.
You know that in order to start, the stator must be supplied with voltages that are shows shift phase between them,
so the trick is to use a capacitor (since it shifts phase current) to simulate a 3-phase source.
As indicated in the following picture:

∙ 14y agoThe motor sounds like a multi-voltage motor that can be wired either 230v or 460v depending on how the leads are wired. So yes it should be able to be hooked to a 3 phase 480v system just make sure you follow the wiring diagram for hooking the leads up to 480v. when a manufacturer list 230v it normally operates at 240v and the same for 460v operating at 480 volts

In a 240 volt single phase circuit A phase is 4000 watts B phase is 7000 watts what is the neutral load?
Question is incorrect. in a 240 Volt single phase circuit, how can you have A phase and B phase?
Acceptable voltage drop for 3 phase 415 volt motor?
The voltage drop should not exceed 3% on a feeder or branch circuit.
Will a 208 volt 3 phase generator supply operate a 230 volt 3 phase motor?
Yes, but the motor's horsepower rating will not be reached.
How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?
You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.
How do you get a 380 volt 3 phase motor to run on a 220 volt 3 phase power source?
Use a transformer.
Can a 220 volt 3 phase motor be connected to a 208 3phase curcit?
Yes.
How do you connect a volt to a circuit?
A volt can not be connected to a circuit.
What is the result of running a 480 volt 3 phase 60hz motor with 415 volt 3 phase motor?
If they are in different rooms or side by side in the same room, and not connected together mechanically, there should not be a problem.
Can you use 240 volt 3 phase to run a machine that is 240 volt single phase?
Yes, if the motor is rated 240 volts 3 phase.There is such a thing as 240 volt 3 phase power.However if you are asking if you can use 240 volts single phase on a three phase motor, then the answer is no.

You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.
Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?
No, the voltage difference is too much. A 570 volt motor falls in the 600 volt range which is separate from the 480 volt range of three phase systems.
How do you get a 380 volt 3 phase motor to run on a 220 volt 3 phase power source?
Use a transformer.
On a 220 volt electric motor which is the neutral wire L1 L2 or L3?
If the motor wire numbers are L1, L2 and L3, it is not a single phase motor. It is a three phase motor. Also for future reference, a 220 volt single phase motor does not use a neutral.
A 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor What is the current in the circuit?
If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in series, the current in the circuit is 1.0 amperes. If a 9.0 volt battery is connected to a 4.0-ohm and 5.0-ohm resistor connected in parallel, the current in the circuit is 0.5 amperes.
