## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good Product & Good Customer Experience
*by A***R on January 24, 2026*

Well packaged, easy and clear instructions for assembly. Product shipping was timely and their support team were helpful when I was trying to size the unit for my application.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ New phase converter
*by D***. on February 17, 2025*

Arrived on time and working perfectly. It’s a little louder than I expected but I built a little insulated box over it and that did the trick.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing product and Company!
*by U***3 on February 2, 2020*

This product came palletized and packaged very nicely. The wiring instructions were clear and I was able to wire it up myself. However, I did have an electrician double check my work. This product does not come with the required connector receptacles, so be prepared to pick those up separately along with your riser/conduit cable and breaker cartridge. I added a disconnect switch for saftey reasons. This 20 hp converter fired right up and it's very quiet. This converter has no problem delivering 3 phase power to my 3 phase panel that is feeding several 3 phase machines in my residential garage. I could not be happier with this american made product.
