What size wire would be required for the power supply of a compressor at 45 amps?

8 AWG.
<<>>
Electrical code wire sizing for motors has to be at 125% of the rated motor current. So the wire has to have the ability to handle 45 + 11.25 = 56.25 amps.
A #6 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 65 amps.

What power station supply west London in electricity?
So why would you need to know that??
Would a 125 volt cord work with a 115 volt compressor?
Yes. The cord only transmits the power. Whatever that goes in is what comes out.
What other appliances would be similar in terms of power consumption to a 1200 watt PSU computer power supply?
Any other appliance that runs on 1200 Watts would use the same amount of energy in an equal time. But computer power supplies do not always run to their full capacity, so 1200 Watts is the maximum output it can supply if needed, in which case it would probably take 5-10% more than that from the supply. Appliances using a simlilar power are a toaster or an iron.
What voltage would you expect to measure on a red wire from a power supply?
+5 VDC(Volts Direct Current)
Why is a solar powered air compressor a thermodynamic impossibility?
It's not impossible at all. It would be the same as saying an electric powered compressor is impossible. How a compressor is powered is irrelevant.
How many volt power supply instrumentation amplifier required?
it depends on if its household or portable, household would depends on where ur located in jamaica it would be 110v, for portability both here and abroad it would be 12-19v. i have a portable 800watt power for my household entertainment and its power supply is 12v, over 7amps.
Why does the power supply unit have a fan built?
To keep the power supply cool. If there were no fan the power supply would overheat and fail.
Can you use a graphics card that requires a power supply of 270watts on a machine with a power supply of 250watts?
I believe this would be unwise, it would overload the power supply and it may overheat.
Is a 24VDC power supply short-circuit protected?
That would depend on the power supply.
Why is there no power going to the compressor?
Assuming you are asking about the ac compressor, there would be two possibilities, blown fuse or low on freon.
How do you install a compressor in a home ac unit?
This is not a job for the home fix-er-upper type. There are special tools required, and special training and Federal/EPA training and testing required for refrigerant recovering and recycling. Assuming, then, that you had all of this covered, you would: make the unit safe, disable and lockout the electrical power supply, Pull the refrigerant out of the system and store for later recycling, verify there is no pressure in the system, cut the pipes with a tube cutter leading to the compressor. Remove the power leads to the compressor. Remove the compressor. Mount the new compressor, Fit up new copper pipes and solder them in with a nitrogen purge and limited flux. Connect the power leads. Put a deep vacuum on the system and check for leaks. Charge the system with the correct number of pounds/ounces of refrigerant. Start the system and test run, checking the system pressures with guages to verify proper operation. Put all the panels back on, (with ALL the screws).
Why is an uninterruptible power supply necessary?
It is not necessary in many cases, but in places like operating rooms and emergency rooms, power is absolutely required for lighting and running equipment. People would die if power went off.
Why do computers require their own internal Power Supply?
Computers require their own internal power supply because the power required to power most newer computers, especially with high-end graphics cards, would require a bulky power supply which wouldn't be ideal in transporting computers or aesthetically. Also, with all of the other internal parts of a computer, some type of power interface would be necessary within the PC anyway, so why not just bundle it all together?
What would cause AC compressor to not run on 96 sunfire - no blown fuses but no power on green wire to the compressor clutch?
Maybe the compressor clutch is not being sent power from the switch in the cab. I'd yank the panel out and have a look at the switch. FriPilot
What size wire for a 45 AMP fuse?
what size wire would be required for an ak012 with a power supply of 208/240-3-60 hz
Is it cheaper to buy a new power supply or repair an older one?
It would be safer and to purchase a new power supply,a repaired power supply might pose a fire hazzard.
What is the main function of PC power supplies boxes?
The PC power supply box's function is to supply the computer with power. Without the PC power supply box, the computer would not be able to turn on and off.
