How does you caluclate the Horse power in 250 amp circuit breaker?
First of all, circuit breakers are rated in amps, not horsepower. Theequivalent between HP and electricity is 1 HP = 746 watts. That is a 1 HP motor requires 746 watts of power to operate it , regardless of the voltage. If you have a 250 amp circuit breaker, it is likely the main breaker to your residential panel. (?) The potential HP the panel could provide could be determined by multiplying the 250 amps times the panels voltage (208,220, 240) and divide the sum by 746.
Up to how much HP are single phase motors maufactured?
Horse power is horse power, regardless of what voltages and currents are used. 5 HP single phase is equal to 5 HP 3 phase.
How do you determine maximum HP possible on a single phase?
1. What voltage is the circuit? 2. What is the overcurrent device (breaker/fuse) rating? 3. What is the branch circuit wire size? The wire must be sized to carry the full breaker rated ampacity The branch circuit should not be loaded to greater than 80% of the breaker's rating. Volts X 80% of breaker amps = watts available. Single phase motors rule of thumb is 1100-1400 watts per HP. The precise maximum HP will depend on the current draw of the exact motor you choose, motor ratings do vary. On a 120v, 20a circuit for instance, 2HP is about it. On a 240v, 70a circuit, you can get up to a 14HP motor or so. Theoretically, with enough amps and volts, you could put a million HP motor on single phase, so it's really a matter of what motors are available for your particular voltage as well as how many amps you have available.
Can a starter used for 5 hp 3 phase motor be used for 7.5 hp 3 phase motor?
No.
What size breaker for a 20 horse power motor with 3 phase 208 volts?
The question is impossib;e to answer without knowing the supply voltage. <<>> What ever the motors full load amperage is, the breaker has to be sized to 250% of that FLA.

What best breaker rating for 1.5 hp air-con unit?
The breaker you use is determined by the size of the wire in the wall not by what is being connected to that circuit. If you have 14/2 wire then use a 15 amp breaker. If you have 12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. The breaker protects the wiring not the item connected.

How much hp is 176 cc?
The 176cc engines are about 5 hp; 160cc =3-4 hp 176 (foreign) 4-5 hp 205cc= 5-7 hp 250cc= 8 hp 350cc=11-13 hp
How many hp in a 190 cc motor?
190 cc. is about 5 hp.
Is a one half HP motor sufficient to run a dehumidifier with 15 Amps and 115 Volts?
A 1/2 HP 115volt motor draws 9.8 amps. This is a nominal book amperage for a 1/2 HP motor, check the nameplate for an accurate value. A breaker, to protect this size motor, has to be rated at 250% of the motors full load amps. In this case a 25 amp breaker in needed. If using the actual nameplate amperage, multiply it by 250% to find the size of the breaker to use. If the motor used 230 volts as a supply a two pole 15 amp breaker would work.
How many amps is a 3 hp 240 volt motor use?
AWG #10 copper on a 30 amp breaker.
