In 3 horsepower how many amps needed?
3 amps on 120 volts is almost 1/2 hp. To be exact 0.48 hp, that's why I said almost 0.5 hp or 1/2 hp. So say you are thinking of buying a 3 amp grinder or table top sander and you want to know about how many HP (Horse Power) it is, the answer is 120 volts X 3 amps = 360 X 0.00134 = 0.4824 HP which is almost a 1/2 HP you can do the math from there if its a 6 amp motor then its almost a 1 HP motor or to be exact 0.4824 X 2 = 0.9648 also almost 1 HP. This is if you are on 120 volts. If you are on 110 or 125 volts its about the same.
How many watt power inverter is required to run a 1 horse power 220 volts motor?
The inverter should supply at least 1 kW and if it is for extended use more than 4-5 minutes it should supply 1.5 kW.
What volt circuit is needed for an 8.5 amp electric motor that uses 550 watts in 1 hour?
The time is immaterial. A 550-watt motor operating at 8.5 amps needs a voltage of 550/8.5 volts.
How many amps is needed to run 3200 watts?
Watts = Amps x Volts x Power Factor For a motor the Power Factor is less than 1 and might typically be about .75. For a resistive load like a toaster PF = 1. If you know the Voltage and PF and know the wattage you can calculate amps. Amps = Watts / (Volts x PF)
How much power do you need to run a 3hp table saw?
Need to know the voltage of the motor. Use this formula, I = W/E, Amps = Watts/Volts. Once you have the amperage then ask, what size wire is needed for (your amperage) at (your voltage).
Will ther be any loss in terms of power if you ran a 550 volts motor with 380 volts?
There will be a significant reduction in the mechanical power output available from the motor.
How many horse power motor do you need if 3 phase 380 volts load is 22 kw?
Theoretically 22 kW is equivalent to 29.5 HP but there are some power losses in the motor and the probable maximum output of mechanical power is 25 HP.
Can 36 volts of car battery power a 1hp electric motor?
Depends on the ratings(volts, amps, etc.) Definitely not an AC motor.

What size breaker is used for a 3 horse power motor with 3 phase 208 volts?
I would go with 20 amp 3 pole 15 amp will also do
How do you calculate hp from amps?
1 HP is 746 watts in principle. The power is in watts, and the power is the volts times the amps. For an AC motor the power is the volts times the amps times the power factor times a factor that depends on the power-conversion efficiency of the motor.
How do you find watts when given volts and horsepower?
1 horse power=746watt
How many amps does a one horse power motor draw?
depends what the source voltage isone horsepower equals to 746watts (assuming 100% efficiency)746 watts divided by voltage source equals current (amps)AnswerIn countries, such as the USA, where the horsepower is still used as a means of measuring power, it is always used to measure the output power of a motor.So, in order to determine the current drawn by the motor, you will first need to find out its input power. The input power is the output power divided by the machine's efficiency. Once you know its input power, then you can find its current by dividing the input power by the supply voltage. In practise, you will need to use a wattmeter to determine its input power.
How much full load ampere in 2 horse power compressor?
It depends on the voltage of the compressor. Two horse power (electric) is 1492 watts, but watts are volts times amps, so you need to know the voltage. Since the motor is an inductive load, you will also need to know the power factor, so as to compensate for true vs apparent power.
How many volts to run a 48 Volt club car electric motor?
If a 48 Volt club car electric motor requires 48 volts, then it should be given a 48 volt power source, or something close to it. Too many more volts and it may burn out; not enough volts and it may not run or it will try to draw too much power and burn out the power supply.
How many watt power inverter is required to run a 1 horse power 220 volts motor?
The inverter should supply at least 1 kW and if it is for extended use more than 4-5 minutes it should supply 1.5 kW.
What motor has more power one at 120 volts or one at 208 volts?
The voltage of the motor does not determine the power. However it does determine how many Fla... Or full load amp it will have when the motor is at highest speed. Usually the lower the voltage the higher the amps On the same motor. Most motors will have a name plant with this information and you should always get the amount of horsepower motor you need and make sure it will be compatible with your power source.
