Hello guys need your help.
I have two three-phase generators – one with power about 20 kW, and other with bigger power (about 50 kW). But I always must use the bigger one because of phase (current) unbalancing near 40-50% (which I could not correct for some reasons). From my calculating, for all loads smaller generator is quite enough. So, what I need is a device for balancing three-phase system to reduce cost of fuel, etc.

Are there some complete systems from any manufacturers that will do the job? Anyway, all references and suggestions should be helpful.
Thanks.
 

An unbalanced 3 phase load can be an expensive un required expense
The 3 phase supply probably made practical or economic sense for the previous occupier

Your suggestion of one single phase supply seems the best solution if the existing load is within supply capability
It would need little in the way of alteraion/adaption or cost and would be my direction if no 3 phase equipment was being used
One standing charge would be a better cost effective than three seperate supplies which would also incur the expense of the alterations by the supplier
