18kW motor will take how many amps?
To calculate the amps drawn by an 18kW motor, you can use the formula: Amps = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts). Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, the motor would draw approximately 150Amps. Note that actual amps will depend on the specific voltage of the motor.
Is a pool pump motor drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate a problem with the windings?
A pool pump motor which is drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate can indicate a problem with the windings or a lack of incoming current. Pumps will only draw as many amps as are required to operate under the current load.
What is the amps for a 2.5hp 240v cont motor draw.?
Presuming single phase and 1500 rpm. Normal running current would nearly 10 Amps but varies considerably. A real cheap one running at 3000/3600 rpm could exceed 12 amps. At 240 volt, all should be run off 15 Amp line.
What size fuses are required for a 7.5KW Motor?
For a 7.5kW motor, you would typically use a fuse rated for around 25-30 amps. The exact size may vary depending on the specific motor and starting requirements, so it's best to consult the manufacturer's recommendations or a qualified electrician.
How many amps does a 12 volt boat trolling motor use per hour?
You asked the wrong question. You need to know how many amps the motor uses. Then you can multiply amps times volts and get watts. Then you can multiply watts by hours and get watt hours. (For house electricity you pay for kilowatt hours.) A kilowatt is 1,000 watts.
For 225 kw motor what is the amps star and delte and what is the cable size required?
Need to know what the voltage of the motor is.

How many amps drawn a 110KW motor?
Watts = Volts times Amps. Therefore, if the voltage was 220 volts, the motor would draw 500 amps. If the voltage was 4,000 volts, the motor would draw 27.5 amps. The voltages for large powerful motors tend to be relatively high, for example in the 380 Volts to 11,500 Volts range.
What is Full Load Amps?
FLA is the nameplate amperage rating of the motor when it is running at its designed horsepower and on the motors designed voltage. 746 watts = 1 HP. The FLA of a 1 HP motor at 240 volts would be W = amps x volts, Amps = Watts/Voltage. 746/240 = 3.1 amps full load. Overload the motor and the amps go higher, motor running at no load amps are lower than FLA
Is a pool pump motor drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate a problem with the windings?
A pool pump motor which is drawing half the amps listed on its nameplate can indicate a problem with the windings or a lack of incoming current. Pumps will only draw as many amps as are required to operate under the current load.
How many amps does a 1 hp electric motor pull under a load?
T430.247 of the NEC shows that a 1 hp motor operating at full load on 115v will draw 16 amps, called Full Load Current (FLC). Conductors supplying this motor are required to be 125% of FLC which is 20 amps. Motor circuits are complicated things and do not follow the rules of other circuits. This motor, while drawing a maximum of 16 amps at full load and supplied with #12 AWG copper conductors can be protected by a breaker of 40 amps.
What is the amps for a 2.5hp 240v cont motor draw.?
Presuming single phase and 1500 rpm. Normal running current would nearly 10 Amps but varies considerably. A real cheap one running at 3000/3600 rpm could exceed 12 amps. At 240 volt, all should be run off 15 Amp line.
What is the difference between full load amps and running load amps?
Full load amps is the maximum rated amps that the motor should draw according to its nameplate rating. Running load amps is the actual amperage the motor is drawing at that point in time when the test is taken. Some motor loads vary depending on if the load is cyclic. The reading on this type of motor would be from no load amps to full load amps.
What is locked rotor current?
"Locked Rotor Current" also called LRA which stands for Locked Rotor Amps, is commonly found on electric motor nameplates. Locked Rotor essentially means the motor is not turning. The current or amps in this case have to do with the amount of electrical energy required to start the motor. At the instant the motor is switched on, it is not turning, and draws the maximum current. As the motor starts to turn, the current goes down. This required energy is much greater than the Full Load Amps or Running Amps, which is the current drawn when the motor is running at normal speed under full load. The current required to start the motor will depend on the type of motor as well as the specified design voltage required for the motor, typically the higher the voltage, the lower the required amperage or current. The term also applies to equipment such as Air Conditioners which have an enclosed motor inside the compressor, as well as the condenser fan(s) etc. Depending on the type of motor, LR current can be anywhere from 3 to 8 times the normal running current, also called RLA, or running load amps.
How do you measre the running amps a star delta motor?
Measure the current on the incoming side of the starter.
What is the difference between Full load Amps and Service Factor Amps on an electric motor?
Full load amps is the amperage at which the motor was designed to work at to achieve its rated horsepower. Service factor amps is the amount of a periodic overload at which a motor can operate without overload or damage. Continuous operation within the service factor amps will shorten the insulation and motor bearing life of the motor as the motor will be operating at a higher temperature than it was designed to.
What size fuses are required for a 7.5KW Motor?
For a 7.5kW motor, you would typically use a fuse rated for around 25-30 amps. The exact size may vary depending on the specific motor and starting requirements, so it's best to consult the manufacturer's recommendations or a qualified electrician.
