Best Answer

The formula you are looking for is I = kW x 1000/1.73 x E x pf. I = 1.5 x 1000 = 1500. 1500/1.73 x 400 x .86 = 1500/595 = 2.5 amps.

A standard motor's efficiency between 5 to 100 HP is .84 to .91.

A standard motor's power factor between 10 to 100 HP is .86 to .92.

A feeder for a motor has to be rated at 125% of the motors full load amps 2.5 x 125% = 3.1 amps

A #14 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 15 amps.

Is it common to use a 4160 V 3 Phase motor with a variable speed drive?

No, a 4160 volt motor with a high inertia load will use a resistor bank in the starting of the motor.

Will 220 volt work in a high volt 3 phase motor?

Yes a 208 voltage motor will operate on 220 volts. You have to increase the motor overload protection by 10% of the motor's full load amperage to protect the motor.

How many Amps for 3 horsepower at 208 volts?

For a single phase 3 HP motor at 208 volts the amperage is 18.7 amps. For a three phase 3 HP motor at 208 volts the amperage is 10.5 amps. This figure is derived at by taking the full load amps at 230 volts and adding 10%. As the voltage goes down the amperage goes up. For 200 volt motors 15% is added to the FLA of a 230 volt motor.


What is 4160 Volt electrical wire insulation rated for?

You can use an insulation rating 5000 volt to run 4160 volt supply.


Will a 208 volt 3 phase generator supply operate a 230 volt 3 phase motor?

Yes, but the motor's horsepower rating will not be reached.


What is the full load running current of a 3hp 208volt single phase continuous duty ac motor?

It would probably be 20-30 amps. <<>> The electrical code book states a value of 18.7amps for a 3HP 208 volt motor. If the nameplate data is available it is always best to use it when calculating wire size and overload protection for the motor.


How do you change a 3 phase 440 volt motor to a 3 phase 220 volt motor?

You can not change it. 440 volt is by design. However you run it with 220 single phase supply, but it would run far lower power.


Can you run a 570 volt motor on 480 volt three phase power supply?

No, the voltage difference is too much. A 570 volt motor falls in the 600 volt range which is separate from the 480 volt range of three phase systems.


How do you get a 380 volt 3 phase motor to run on a 220 volt 3 phase power source?

Use a transformer.
