Best Answer

For calculation purposes 1 HP is equal to 746 watts. So you have a total of 746 x 7 = 5222 watts. The amperage will be A = W/V = 7222/12 = 435 amps. You can not start the motor directly off of the solar panel. You would need a large 12 VDC parallel connected battery bank to obtain the amperage capacity to start the motor. The solar panels would be connected to the battery bank and used to charge the batteries after the start.

How do you start single phase induction motor?

capacitive start motors start by themselves however a normal single phase induction motor requires a starter motor to 'kick-start' the motor into action.


Can a single phase 220 motor run backwards?

Changing motor rotationA split phase induction motor has two sets of coils and a centrifugal start switch. The start winding is in series with the start switch. The start winding provides a rotating magnetic field in one direction enabling the motor to start. The motor can be reversed by reversing the connections of either the start winding or the run winding but not both.

How could the direction of rotation of the split phase motor be reversed?

What wll happen if the starting winding in a split pase motor fail to energize?

The motor would not start rotating. The motor will just hum and the rotor will be stationary. If you can get the rotor to start turning the motor will still run on its run winding.I have a cement mixer that has a motor with a burnt out start winding. All I have to do is turn the barrel and the motor will start turning over. Without the start winding you have a choice of which way the motor will turn. If I turn the mixer barrel the opposite direction, the barrel will turn that way until I turn the unit off.

How does solar energy happen?

Solar Energy happens when you put a solar energy panel in a sunny position and when the sun shines on it. It should start working to what ever you want it to work on!


Where are solar panels used and why?

you use solar panel to capture the sun's energey because then you don't have to fire woods to start energey which is bad for the envioment.


How does a solar panel produce DC current?

(Another contributor wrote:)Light has its own energy and when it is conducted by a material the energy turns into electrons which are collected and made into direct current electricity (DC). When sunlight fall on a solar panel (pv cells) the electrons get excited and start flowing and the electron flow is nothing but electricity. Thus a solar panel produces electricity.


Where does all the solar energy go when it is converted?

If the solar panels are conected directly to an engine or motor or any electric item directly the enrgy will go in the electric item and you cannot store the energy the item will start working ,if you connect an battry or capaciter the energy will be stored in that and when ever you want to use it you can use it,and if the solar panel is not connected to any item the energy will go waste.

Is a solar cell a solar panel?

Solar powered boards are contained a few individual sunlight based cells which are themselves made out of layers of silicon, phosphorous (which gives the negative charge), and boron (which gives the positive charge). Sun powered boards ingest the photons and in doing so start an electric flow.. For more details please visit SunEdison infrastructure Limited

Where can I get solar panels for my house?

A good place to start is to contact a solar power installation expert. They can help you decide which type of panel is most appropriate for your needs. They can probably recommend a good source for purchasing some panels as well.
