A #4 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 85 amps. This size wire will also be the same for a load amperage of 68 amps as the next wire size smaller #6 is only rated at 65 amps.

Can you plug a 220V 60Hz hotplate into a 230V 50Hz outlet?

You can but it would be wise not to. Most 60hz appliances will not work at 50 Hz. <<>> Yes, no problem at all. The frequency does not enter into the equation because the hot plate is a strictly resistive load.


What capacitor should you use on my step up transformer with an output of 220v so you can use it to run my 220v 60hz motor?

If you have a transformer with an output adequate to run the motor, use it directly for the supply to the motor control circuitry. Remember when dealing with motors, the start current will be about 300% of the full load running amperage. Size the transformer accordingly.


How do you change a 220V 50Hz electric water heater to 60Hz 220V?

Not without spending a great deal of money. Appliances with motors and timers at 50 Hz would have to be changed out to 60 Hz components. Appliances that are strictly of a resistive nature will operate without any problem.


What is the demand load in amps for a range with a 2.4kW single phase at 220V?

That load would be 10.9 amps.


Why wattmeter shows negative reading during no load condition of 3phase ac induction motor?

no load means the motor is acting like a coil


What is 24 kva in amps at 220 v ac?

To calculate the amperage at 220V AC for a 24kVA load, use the formula: Amps = kVA / Volts. Therefore, 24kVA / 220V = 109.09A. So, a 24kVA load at 220V AC would draw approximately 109.09 amps.


What will happen if you plug a 220v 60hz motor into a 220v 50 hz voltage source?

It depends on what the device is. If it is a resistive load then it would act normally. If it was a motor load it would not act as the manufacturer specified it would. The one part that might be a problem is the plug (cap) configuration. European pin configurations are different from those using North American configurations. So to answer the question, nothing would happen because you wouldn't be able to plug a 220 volt 60 Hz device into a 220 volt 50 Hz receptacle.


Can a 440 - 480V 60Hz motor run in a site with 380V 60Hz supply If No how can it work?

The motor will run, probably at nearly the same speed, but it cannot supply the same mechanical load. If it can be run on a lighter load, proportional to the voltage, it should be OK.


How does 50hz and 60hz differ from one another?

ONE THING FOR SURE THERE IS NO CHANGE IN VOLTAGE IF SAME EQUIPMENT WE ARE TALKING ABOUT. THE ISSUE HERE IS THE CHANGING LOAD FREQUENCY 60HZ TO 50HZ OR VICE VERSA. FOR EXAMPLE THE MOTOR HORSEPOWER AND R.P.M. WILL BE APPROXIMATELY 90 AND 83 PERCENT OF THE NAMEPLATE SPECIFICATIONS, ALSO THE FULL LOAD RUNNING TORQUE WILL INCREASE APPROXIMATELY 8 PERCENT IF USED FROM 60HZ TO 50HZ.


How much will neutral current be in a 3phase 4-wire y system with a balanced load?

Balanced load means no unbalanced currents, so the neutral current should be near zero.


How can I use 380v 3 phase to power 220v 3phase motor?

f your supply is a Y connected transformer (4 wires COM) with a phase to phase voltage of 380 volts (voltage between any two of the hot wires) , utilizing a true Y connection to your load (connections of one hot lead and neutral for each phase to your load will give a voltage of 380 ÷ sqrt 3 = 380 ÷ 1.732 = 220 volts.


What is wire standard 60hz 220v ac cable?

many wires are. such as 14-2 Romex. 12-2 Romex. Any THHN wire of any size. This list is very long. If you have a speific application then you need to check the NEC 2005 Table 310.13 Conductor Applications and Insulations.
