How many watts will a 1 horsepower 240 volt motor drawing 9 amps use?
Ilovesadie
Amps are not directly convertible to horse power, which is a measure of power. Power is current times voltage. Therefore on a 240 v supply, 9.2 amps equals 2208 watts. One horse power is 746 watts.

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
How do you calculate hp from amps?
1 HP is 746 watts in principle. The power is in watts, and the power is the volts times the amps. For an AC motor the power is the volts times the amps times the power factor times a factor that depends on the power-conversion efficiency of the motor.
What horsepower os 5.1 amps?
Amps are not directly convertible to horse power, which is a measure of power. Power is current times voltage. Therefore on a 240 v supply, 5.1 amps equals 1224 watts. One horse power is 746 watts.
How many ampere in one hp?
There are 746 watts in 1 HP. Watts = amps x volts. It depends on the voltage rating of the motor. Amps = 746/volts = ? need voltage.
How do you convert hp to amp?
HP/.00134= Watts Then Watts divided by Volts = AMPS For expample. a .75 HP electric motor running on 220VAC uses 2.544 amps .75 / .00134 = 559.7015 Watts then 559.7015 / 220 = 2.544
What is the equivalent of AMPS to horse power?
You are thinking watts to horsepower, not amps to horsepower. Please restate the question.

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
What is the approximate horsepower rating of a 240V motor that draws 15.5A of current?
A motor that draws 14 amps on 240 volts is probably a two horsepower motor, but it could be three depending on the efficiency.Watts = amps x volts. There are 746 watts in 1 horsepower.CommentIn North America, horsepower is always used to describe the output power of a motor. You can only find the input power by multiplying the supply voltage by the load current. You will, unfortunately, then need to know the efficiency of the machine to determine its output power in horsepower.
How do you Convert 220v 20hp to amps?
1 horsepower = 746 watts, 1 watt = 1 volt x 1 amp => 20 Horsepower = 14,920 watts => 14,920 watts / 220 volts = 67.82 amps
How much amps 220volt2 horsepower pump pull?
One HP is equal to 746 watts. 2 x 746 = 1492 watts. The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. The most accurate amperage is found on the nameplate as this is established by the motor's manufacturer.
How many volts does it take to make 1 horsepower?
Volts don't make power. Watts do. Watts = (volts) x (amps) 1 horsepower = 746 watts
How many amps does a 1.0hp pool pump pull?
One horsepower is equivalent to 746 watts. So if the motor is wired for 220 volts the current consumed is 3.39 amps. (watts divided by voltage = current) so? the label says 7.6 amps for a 1hp with a SF of 1.25 at 240 volts. 9.6 for a 1.5 hp .this is your typical pool pump motor, what motor are you getting data from ?
How many watts of power are used by a heater operating at 460 volts and drawing 5 amps?
The answer in watts is 460 times 5.
How many amp in 10 HP?
How to convert horsepower to amps? You'd have to make an assumption about volts. If it's running at 220 volts, that would make it 34 Amps. There are 746 watts in a horsepower and Amps = Watts/Volts.
17.60amperes what is the equivalent in horsepower?
That will depend on the voltage together with the amperage. Multiply voltage times amperage to get the watts. There are about 746 watts to one horsepower. A 220 volt circuit at 17.60 amps would be about 5.2 horsepower.
How many watts does the average sump pump use?
To calculate the amperage of a motor more information needs to be stated. The voltage, wattage or horsepower are needed and then use this equation I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. For calculation purposes there are 746 watts in one Horsepower.
How many watts of power does a 5 horsepower motor use?
A single-phase induction motor uses variable amounts of current depending on the load etc. but on a 240 v system you should allow 7 amps per horsepower, so 35 amps for 5 HP.
