The motor is a big 10HP 3-phase, so just to test it, I ordered an inexpensive static phase converter
off eBay. For the test, I screwed it, the original magnetic starter and the old pushbutton controls
to a chunk of plywood in order to keep it all organized. I'm sure I'm violating about a hundred
electrical codes here, but again, just a test. Hardly anyone died.
