I think there's a broader issue on display here which is often neglected and not well taught in introductory physics. CIRCUITS AREN'T... -

Like.
His whole "Kirchoff is for the birds" schtick is just a strawman argument. He starts by violating one of the basic assumptions of... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.I assume the 130 volts was measured from the wye node to each VFD output? Sounds about right. You will probably not be able to makes... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Ok. So you are assuming the voltage spikes won't damage the motor during testing I assume. -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Well I'm certainly not one to talk someone out of acquiring more tools. :) But your voltmeter readings don't make sense. What have you... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.This needs to be addressed before we go any further. Those measurements indicate the outputs are not referenced to earth. You say the... -

Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.Actually I'm not sure where the op is. So my comment was informative but not necessarily helpful. -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.In the USA 240 volts 3 phase would generally be delta with 240 between the corners of the delta. Typically one winding center tapped for... -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.That's because it's not referenced to earth. Can't expect the scope to give you anything readable. -
Averagesupernova replied to the thread Running older induction motors on VFDs.It's pretty clear to me that you don't have the input attenuation set up correctly on the scope. As far as triggering goes, if you're... -
Averagesupernova reacted to DaveC426913's post in the thread Undergrad Is infinity a necessary concept? with
Like.
Latecomer here. I got the impression that the OP was more wondering if - rather than the very concrete entity of infinity, the concept... -

If so, (what put as bold), then very sad. At least for loss of richness. Some of us could think back in our lives: Might have some of... -

Not any significant monetary cost. The cost is whatever the time and processes to learn to arrange the automatic payment; including...
