You'll need at least 25 kVA. That's as much power as a small house. Then add air conditioning. Not sure whether upgrading electric service or buying a generator would cost more. Maybe renting one long enough to see if it will power up could be done. What are your goals for it? Is it literally 440 volts, or is that just a figure of speech for what is officially 480 volts (if you are in the US)? -- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Phil Howard KA9WGN | http://linuxhomepage.com/ http://ham.org/ | | (first name) at ipal.net | http://phil.ipal.org/ http://ka9wgn.ham.org/ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
