I thought it looked familiar, I have a 7.5 Panel from them. I don't use it anymore but it worked well for the 2 years that I had it hooked up. I've heard the Leeson works well in RPC's, My Baldor was pretty loud I thought. Sounds like you have your 3 phase power well supplied now. Sounds like its time for you to make some chips.

How do you measure voltages on a rpc ?

Yeah, the Leeson is pretty quiet compared to my 5hp RPC. The name plate on the 5hp motor had been removed at the point of sale, so I don't know what brand of motor it is.
I have to fix an oil sump leak before I can use the horizontal mill on a steady basis, but I am home this afternoon and will fill the sump back up and try the mill at the high speed setting (8hp) on the motor and see how it performs.
Cheers...
