A 120V input VFD (variable frequency drive) is designed specifically for the North American market, where many residential garages, small workshops, and light commercial facilities have only 120V single-phase outlets available.
Standard VFDs require a 220V or higher input. The 120V input models on this page accept standard North American 120V single-phase power (NEMA 5-15 or 5-20 outlet) and output 220V single-phase or three-phase power at adjustable frequency — allowing you to run 220V or three-phase motors from a regular household circuit.
Typical applications include:
Garage workshops: lathes, drill presses, band saws, grinders
Small irrigation and water pump systems
Residential HVAC fan control
Light commercial equipment on 120V circuits
Available 120V Input Models at Inverter.com
Inverter.com stocks the following 120V input VFDs:
All models: GK3000 series, V/F and vector control, built-in PID, RS-485 Modbus, overload and short-circuit protection. Operating temperature: -10°C to +40°C.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can a 120V VFD run a three-phase motor? A1: Yes. The 120V input models on this page output 220V three-phase power, allowing you to run a standard three-phase motor from a 120V single-phase outlet. This is ideal for hobby machinists and small shop owners who want to run three-phase equipment without a utility upgrade.
Q2: What circuit breaker size do I need for a 120V input VFD? A2: Due to the AC-DC-AC conversion process, the 120V input current is significantly higher than the motor's output current. As a general guide: a 0.75kW (1 hp) unit draws approximately 12–15A on 120V input; a 1.5kW (2 hp) unit draws 20–25A. A dedicated 20A or 30A circuit is recommended for most models. Check the product datasheet for exact input current ratings.
Q3: Will a 120V input VFD work with a 60 Hz supply? A3: Yes. All 120V input models accept 50 Hz or 60 Hz input and can output any frequency from 0 Hz to 400 Hz. Standard US 120V/60 Hz supply is fully compatible.
Q4: What is the largest 120V input VFD available? A4: The largest model currently in stock is 5.5kW (7.5 hp). If you need higher power, a 220V single-phase or three-phase supply will be required — see the single-phase output VFD or three-phase VFD pages for larger ratings.
