How amperes does a1.5hp 115volt single phase motor draw assuming 90percentefficiency and 88percen power factor?

1.5hp is 1118W W = VI You should be able to get the answer from that easily enough.............................

Can a 15 amp fuse handle a 115volt welder?

No, you would need at least 20 amps. But the fuse must match the wiring. A 20 amp fuse will require the use of AWG # 12 wire.


How can you run a dayton 115Volt AC motor on 230Volt AC?

Use a VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) to drive the motor and do not run the motor at more than 50% of the full capacity. For higher RPM use gear system.


Using a power tool that is 120volts with a 115volt transformer?

If you are in north America, 120 is a 'nominal voltage' printed on many power tools. In fact they will almost all work on voltage between 105 and 130, as long as using 60 hz.


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.
