Its been a while since ive brushed up on my electricity knowledge, but im fairly certain that breaker capacities are based on amps. I think you would have to know the amperage of the motor before you were able to conclude what size you need.

What is an abb drive in a vfd system?

I have used several hundred ABB drives. The term "VFD" is just another name for a "drive". It stands for Variable Frequency Drive. A "VFD System" is an electrical power control system, for example running a pump, in which the drive varies the speed of the pump motor. The drive does this electronically using pulse-width modulation to vary the average motor power frequency. When the motor sees 30 Hz instead of 60Hz, the motor runs 50% speed.


What is better a plugin charger with an input of 100-240vac 50-60hz 0.15a output 5.0v0.7a or a phone charger with an input of 100v-240v 0.2a 50hz-60hz an output of 5.0v800ma?

The one with the output of 5v 800ma as this will charge devices quicker and overheat less.

What gets the electricity into a computer?

Typically computers are connected to a UPS. Rarely they are connected to direct power supply. The UPS may provide 110V or 220V supply oscillating at 50Hz and 60Hz. These values depend on the particular country's power supply standards. The electricity supply then goes to SMPS in case of desktops. SMPS is a control circuit that switches the load current rapidly on and off in order to stabilise the output voltage. Typically different components get different levels of voltages. It may range from 1.5V to 12V. Note that computer components run on DC supply not AC supply so it is converted by SMPS. In case of laptops the AC supply is converted to DC and then given to battery which further supplies the laptop components.


What to do about flashes on my computer?

If you are epileptic try taking a break every 10 -15mins because of the rate computers flash per second. You can check how many time it flashes by the mod code. There are 'screens' that show less of how many times computers flash a second. Older CRT monitors with low refresh rates (lower than 60Hz) can be prone to flickering. You may be able to increase the refresh rate of your monitor by changing the settings on your operating system. If your CRT monitor does not support a refresh rate higher than 59Hz, you may want to consider switching to a LCD monitor which are much less prone to flickering. For a LCD monitor, some people may notice flicker on certain monitors while most other people would not. This can be hit and miss. If you experience this problem, try going to a store and testing out display LCD monitors for flicker.

What size breaker is needed for a 115v 60hZ 18.0FLA motor?

25 amps and it should be run through a contactor and motor over load set,you should set the over load to 5% above the motors full load current.And not your breaker should be a d curve type with 6ka rating.


Will a 220V 60Hz Air-conditioner run safely at 230V 50Hz?

Not really because motors are designed to run at either 50 or 60 Hz and the wrong frequency might cause them to malfunction or overheat.

You don't.

How can you determine if an electric motor is 50HZ or 60HZ if there is no name plate?

One way would be to hook it up to a supply (by itself, with no load) and measure the speed with a contact tachometer. If your supply is 60Hz, and the motor speed corresponded to one of the standard motor speeds, it would be a pretty safe bet you had a 60Hz motor. If the speed was about 20% faster than a standard speed, the motor is probably a 50Hz motor. Or 20% slower if you were running a 60Hz motor on 50Hz For instance, a 1750 RPM 50Hz motor would spin at about 2100 RPM if you ran it on 60Hz.


What is impact ampere in 50Hz motor connected to 60Hz?

What effect will be there on the motor (Induction) output power when a 100kW 50hz motor is connected to a 60hz power supply.


Can you run a 460v 60hz motor to a 480v supply?

The the supply stays within +/- 5% of what the motor is rated for, you can do this.


Can a 440 - 480V 60Hz motor run in a site with 380V 60Hz supply If No how can it work?

The motor will run, probably at nearly the same speed, but it cannot supply the same mechanical load. If it can be run on a lighter load, proportional to the voltage, it should be OK.


Can a vfd be run any higher than 60hz?

Yes, most VFDs can run faster than the input power frequency so you can run a motor to 60Hz with a 50Hz power source. Just be aware that as speed increases, so will the current. Also be aware that a motor is rated to run a specific rpm and running faster may cause motor bearing failure after a short time.


How can you run a 380v 50hz motor with 440v 60hz source?

Yes. It will make your motor a little faster though, so it depends on what you are powering with this motor. IE Can the piece of eguipment be ran faster?
