Thanks, this is definitely helpful. The motors are AC, and the control gear
will in fact be on a nice UPS. What the hey, here's a video of one of the
actual bases in action:

Last night they metered the actual power draw and it was 10 amps at
"steady" and 40amps while running hard, for the one base.

The auto-tap transformer may actually be an ideal first solution, since we
have to install a 380VAC-to-220VAC transformer anyway (a minor detail that
somehow didn't make it into the "final" electrical plans...).

Thanks again,
Michael S.
