575V 60 Hz 3-ph 1HP motor- any use for it?
(OP)
I have a nice new 3-phase motor. However, because it's 3-phase, it has limited use around the house. Also, it's 575V [and appears to not be re-wireable for other voltages]. Rated 1HP.
Any use for this thing? Dummy motor for 1ph => 3ph converter?
I guess it can be run on 480V, but torque will be somewhat lower as a result?
Tips appreciated.

Put it on E-bay for Canada, someone up there will buy it.
