Use the formula:
power = voltage x current x power factor
If you don't know the power factor, assume it is 1 - this is close enough for many devices. In units:
power (in watts) = voltage (in volts) x current (in amperes)
480 volt amperage and up to higher voltage
108/480 or 9/40
To calculate the amperage drawn by the heater, you can use the formula: Amperage (A) = Power (W) / (Voltage (V) * Square root of 3). In this case, the amperage drawn will be approximately 5.8 Amps.
Can I run 480 volt , 60 HZ motor at a 380 volt , 60 Hz system?
In a 480 volt wye connection you obtain two voltages, 277/480 volts. Any leg to grounded wye point will give you 277 volts. Between any of the legs to each other you will receive 480 volts. Any two legs of a three phase system is classified as single phase supply. From a 480 volt central distribution panel install a two pole breaker sized to the amperage shown on the welding machine. Be sure to use the input current and not the output current to find the correct feeder for the unit.
Yes 480 volt electric wiring can be run in emt conduit.
480 volts and 60ohm impedence current = volt/impedence current=480/60 current=8ampeares
Across a 480 volt three phase system, 480 volts should appear across L1 and L2, L2 and L3 and L3 and L1.
Yes
The conductor for H2 connection on a 480 volt wire transformer should be marked:
Yes, the 440 volt motor is withing the 10% voltage range of the 460 volt group. When the supply is said to be 480 volts, usually it is lower than what it is stated to be. Once the motor is connected check the current against the motor's nameplate amperage.
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.The 277 volt heater can be wired to a single pole breaker in a 3 phase 4 wire 480 volt distribution panel. The breaker should be sized to the amperage draw of the heater. 277 volts is the star point (wye) voltage of a 480 3 phase system. 480 / 1.73 = 277 volts. The third answer is not correct, two phase legs of a 480 volt system will give you 480 volts. It is the phase leg to ground (neutral) that gives you the 277 volts.A 277 Volt heater or device may not be wired to a 480 Volt circuit or box. A 277 Volt device may only be wired to a circuit rated for 277V/480V equipment.2 legs of 480 volts will give you 277. But since you don't know the answer you probably shouldn't be doing it! Please don't kill yourself, hire a licensed electrician.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energizedIF YOU ARE NOT REALLY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
