Hi Paul,
I had been thinking about a 230-0-230 volt transformer arrangement such as is used in electronic circuit supplies (usually 25-0-25 for medium output amplifiers), however, as you point out, the phases are in fact 180 degrees out of phase not 120 and I did wonder how that would effect the performance of the motor, in that it would "confuse" the third phase orientation.

Regards,

Rob.
