That's interesting. I was told that an RP06 requires attention to the correct phase
connections or it will attempt to spin in the wrong direction, implying that it uses a 3
phase spindle motor. Or perhaps that was a different RPnn? Or perhaps it was simply an
urban legend?

In any case, RP06s use three phase power. The issue wasn't the power in
this particular story, but rather the ground wire (the green "protective
ground" that isn't supposed to carry current at all under normal operation).
Not exactly true. RP06 drives are typically connected to 3-phase power, but
only use two of the three phases. I have and RP06 running at home on
110/220VAC 2-phase.
