Is 575 volt more deadly than 220 volt as it draws less amps than the 220 and I thought it was the amps that were dangerous?
Yes 575 volts is more deadly than 220 volts. The higher the voltage becomes the higher the current becomes through a set resistance. A normal dry body's resistance from thumb to thumb is about 2.6 meg ohms. This is the body's outside resistance from point to point and not the body's internal resistance. The body's internal resistance is in the neighbourhood of 1000 ohms. Using a voltage of 220, the formula is , Amps = 220/1000 = .22 amps or 220 milliamps Using a voltage of 575, the formula is , Amps = 575/1000 = .575 amps or 575 milliamps. As you can see as the voltage goes up so does the amperage. The following list is the tolerances that the body can stand. Remember 1 amp is equal to 1000 milliamps. Less than 1/2 milliamp no sensation 1/2 to 2 milliamps Threshold of perception 2 to 10 milliamps muscular contraction 5 to 25 milliamps painful shock (may not be able to let go) Over 25 milliamps Could be violent muscular contraction 50 to 100 milliamps Ventricular fibrillation over 100 paralysis of breathing.
Do you need a transformer to run a 575 volt machine on 480 volts?
Yes, a three phase step up transformer with a primary of 480 volts and a secondary of 600 volts would be neededThis is quite common in North America where the US industrial / commercial voltage is 480 volts and Canada is 600 volts. The sizing of the transformer would depend on the connected load of the machine.
How many hours are there in 575 minutes?
60 minutes = 1 hour so 575 minutes = 575/60 hours = 9.5833... hours
How many ounces are in 575 milliliter?
575 mL equates to approximately 19.4 fluid ounces.
How many liters are in are in 575 mL?
0.575 L
What is the wattage of 115 volts and 5 amps?
Ohms law will tell you watts equals volts times amps: 115 x 5 = 575
How much can 5 amps power?
1 watt = 1 amp * 1 volt So.... In a house: 5 amps * 115 volts = 575 watts In a car: 5 amps * 12 volts = 60 watts

How many amps does a 3 phase 20 hp motor use?
30 HP at 480 (3 Phase) - 746 multiplied by 30 = 22380 22380 divided by 480 (3 Phase) = 46.5 46.5 divided by 1.73 = 29.5AMPS Motor speed and efficiency may change the actual result. Always refer to the name plate data
How many amps does a one horse power motor draw?
depends what the source voltage isone horsepower equals to 746watts (assuming 100% efficiency)746 watts divided by voltage source equals current (amps)AnswerIn countries, such as the USA, where the horsepower is still used as a means of measuring power, it is always used to measure the output power of a motor.So, in order to determine the current drawn by the motor, you will first need to find out its input power. The input power is the output power divided by the machine's efficiency. Once you know its input power, then you can find its current by dividing the input power by the supply voltage. In practise, you will need to use a wattmeter to determine its input power.
How different is the horsepower used by an air conditioner unit if it runs on either single phase or three phase ac?
There is no difference in horsepower. The manufacturer builds the air conditioner. Engineers calculate and tell the manufacturer how much power is going to be required to make it operate. Smaller units will probably use lower voltage with lower horsepower to operate efficiently. The bigger the unit will take higher horsepower to operate. There comes a point when single phase, low voltage use will not work due to the unavailability of high horsepower, low voltage motors. At this point three phase systems are used with higher voltages to operate the motors. Examples of a 10 HP motor at different voltages. Single phase - 115 volts 100 amps, 230 volts 50 amps. Three phase same HP - 200 volts 32.2, 230 volts 28, 460 volts 14 and 575 volts 11 amps. As you can see if the air conditioner needs a 10 HP motor at single phase 115 volts, a feeder supply of 100 amps would be needed. This compared to the same air conditioner using a three phase 575 volt system which draws 11 amps.
How many amps can 30 kva transformer 575 volts to 480 volts gives?
for three phase the calculation is 30,000 = 1.73*V*I - simple as that. For single Phase the calculation is 30,000 = V*I - simple as that It is important to note the voltage in the first line is Line to Line (typically how it is specified in three phase power systems), and the second line it is Line to neutral. A 30KVA transformer is the same as 30,000VA to find out the Amps you need to divide the voltage if the transformer is single phase for example: 30,000VA / 480V = 62.5 Amps The calculation for a 3 phase transformer is the VA / voltage / 1.73 for example: 30,000VA /480V / 1.73 = 36.12 Amps
What type of battery for 2001 Chevy Tracker?
since your battery is group 85 the only place you could get is dealer but you might use a group 26r or equivalent just make sure it has the same cold cranking amps 575 or more and that does fit that's the only thing besides dealer
What is the maximum wattage for 5 amp fuse?
The 5 amp fuse has many wattages that it can protect. It depends on the voltage of the circuit that the fuse is protecting. Use the following formula, Watts = Volts x Amps. For example 120 volts x 5 amps = 600 watts, 240 volts x 5 amps = 1200 watts, 480 volts x 5 amps = 2400 watts and 600 volts x 5 amps = 3000 watts.
What size of circuit breaker do you use for 25amperes induction motor?
Read the specification plate on the motor to determine the amount of current that the motor uses, as well as the voltage and phase. Most likely, it will be a 3 phase motor, so you can't simply connect it to your house wiring, but without sufficient information, it is impossible to tell you all of the specifics. <<>> The code book rates the amperage of a three phase 40 HP motor by different voltages. at 200 volts - 120 amps, 230 volts - 104 amps, 460 volts - 52 amps and 575 volts - 52 amps. A breaker for a motor has to be sized to 250% of the motors full load amps. Also the wire size for a motor has to be 125% of the motor full load amps.
What size wire for a 3 phase 5 hp 460 volt motor?
At 600 volts the rule of thumb is one amp per horsepower. So a 20 HP motor would need 20 amp wire. The code book states that a 20 HP motor at 575 volts draws 22 amps. The conductor for a motor has to be 125% rating of the motors FLA (full load amps). 22 x 125% = 27.5 amps. A #10 copper conductor with a insulation factor of 60,75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 30 amps.
