What amp would a 440 3 phase motor have?
Need to know the horsepower of the motor.
What should the amp reading be Amp on 11kw motor - no load?
hi.. this is pankaj working as power engineer. we have a 11 kw induction motor which is used in fluidising blower. its no load current i sarround 9.5 to 10.6 amp. and under load its ampere does nt exceed 15 amp. its winding resistance is 1.4 ohm.
How can you find motor FLA without the motor nameplate The motor is single phase 120 vac?
use clamp on amp meter
How do you take an amp reading on three phase motor without an amp clamp?
This can be extremely dangerous if you do not know what you're doing. If you are even the slightest bit unsure call an electrician to do it. To measure amperage you will first have to turn the circuits off that feed the motor. Next you will have to open one of the connections for one of the phases and wire your amp meter in series with the motor meaning you will have to make the current pass through your amp meter and go into the motor once it is running. Make sure that your meter is sized and fused appropriately or you risk injury and damage to your meter, maybe even death.
Will a 12 dc volt 8 amp power supply run a 12DC volt 9 amp motor?
Yes but only up to a load torque of 8/9 of the rated torque.
Is a double throw 15amp breaker the same as a 30 amp breaker amp?
You have a double pole breaker for 240Volt supply. The maximum current is 15 amp.
What size breaker is used for a 3 horse power motor with 3 phase 208 volts?
I would go with 20 amp 3 pole 15 amp will also do
What is the difference between a 40 amp and 22 amp motor?
The 40 amp motor probably produces double the horsepower of the 22 amp motor.
What is breaker size for 240 volt 9 KW?
The formula you are looking for is I = W/E.
Is a 2 pole 30 amp circuit breaker equivalent to 30 amp?
Yes.
Have 30 amp double pole need 15 amp 120v?
You can use a 15 amp single pole breaker to convert your 30 amp double pole breaker to 15 amp 120v. Simply replace the 30 amp breaker with the 15 amp breaker in the circuit breaker panel. Make sure to match the wire size in the circuit with the appropriate amperage rating of the new breaker.
What amp light switch used in common household?
That would be a single pole 15 amp switch
Can I put a 40amp 2pole breaker on a 1 horse power well pump I am using?
No, the breaker size is too big. A 1 HP, 230 volt motor draws 8 amps. The electrical code recommends for a motor with a full load amps of 8 amp that it use either 25 amp non time delay fuse, 15 amp time delay fuse or a 20 amp two pole breaker. These sizes will work up to 11 amp full load amps.
Can a 6 amp switch control a 12 amp motor?
No, a 6 amp switch should not be used to control a 12 amp motor as it may cause the switch to overheat and fail due to exceeding its amperage rating. It is important to match the switch's amperage rating with the motor's amperage to ensure safe and proper operation.
What does it mean when you have two 30 amp breakers linked together?
Two single-pole 30 amp breakers tied together make a two-pole 30 amp breaker. From this you can power a device that requires 220-240 volts, typically.
What size breaker is used for a 300 horsepower motor?
A breaker is based on the amount of current that the motor draws. This amperage should be taken off of the motors nameplate. In motors of a specific horsepower the amperage is proportional to the voltage the motor uses. Without the motors voltage this question can not be answered.
How many 1.2 amp lights can a 20 amp breaker hold?
No more than 13 maximum on a 20 amp circuit.
