Best Answer

Your question is incomplete, but given the information presented if your motor was 100 percent efficient the current drawn by each phase would be 8.97 amps. No motor is 100 percent efficient so this number will not be the real world representation of your motor. answer= (746 w * 10hp) / (480 volts * Root 3) = 8.97 amps

Allow 7 amps per HP for a 240 v single-phase supply, that's 70 amps for 10 HP. On 220v 3-phase the current would be 44 amps. On 440 v 3-phase the current is 22 amps.
