What cable size is needed for 415VAC 3 Phase 400kVA generator to a load 50meters away?
As example, at 380V the generator produces 685A per phase. Therefore you will require 2 x 120mm2 cables per phase. (1 x 120mm2 cable will support 365A per phase). In total you will require approximately 1/2km of cable to cover the 50m run between the generator and the ATS panel/Load. i.e. 5 phases in total - 2 x 50m cables per phase.
What size generator do you need to move a 30 hp electric motor?
A 5 kW generator would turn it over but if the full 30 hp of mechanical power is needed, that would require about 30 kW of electric power from the generator.
2.25 HP means how many KWH?
if your talking about a generator its not the hp of the engine its the size, rpm, and gearing of the generator motor
If you have a circuit breaker box containing 650 amps of circuit breakers it is 3 phase 480 volts what size kva generator do you need?
The question isn't the number of amps total on your branch circuits, but rather, what your MAIN breaker(s) are rated at. This will determine what size of generator you will need. And be certain that the generator is 3-phase. <<>> The formula you are looking for is Amps = kva x 1000/1.73 x voltage.
What size tech cable for 480 feet 100 amp?
This is a voltage drop to establish wire size question. For a correct answer to this question two values are needed. One value needed is the voltage and the other is whether it is three phase or a single phase installation.
What generator size is needed for 0.5 hp 220 volt 1 phase?
The generator should be about ¾ hp.
What size diesel generator would you need if there was a power outage?
The size of the generator is based on the size of the load you want to supply. Size up the load in watts or amps along with what phase (single or three) and voltage that the load requires. These are needed to give a complete answer.
What size generator is needed to power this motor ES-31B Series Motor 90 HP Peak?
you need around 60000 watts on a dc current

Concrete mixer whose motor got following configuration 5.5 KW 380v 1140 RPM 3 phase what is the suitable size of generator to run this motor?
You should get a 3 phase generator that has 8-12 KW. If you had to you could use a 3 phase 5.5-6 kw but it may wear out faster because you are using 100% power. The 3 phase gen will allow you to select 480 volt which can be converted to 380 for the mixer. The rpm of the motor in irrelevant because the generator is the power source in this situation, once the gen powers the motor it will produce 1140 to power the mixer.
What size of generator to run 5.5kw 400v 50Hz motor?
You need a 5.5kw generator to run a 5.5kw motor.
What size generator would it take to start and run a 6 horsepower 220 volt electric motor on a air compressor?
To answer this question the full load amperage of the motor and what phase the motor is, should have been given. This answer uses the motor amperage give in the electrical code book and will be close for your purpose. A 6 HP is not a common size motor. 7.5 HP motor is 25.3 amps. Using a power factor of 90%. W = I x E x 1.73 x pf, W = 25.3 x 220 x 1.73 x .9 = 8666 watts. A 10kW three phase generator will probably start the motor if it is not under load when it starts. A 15 kw generator would be better. A single phase 7.5 HP motor draws 40 amps. W = I x E x pf = 40 x 220 x .9 = 7920. Again A 10kW single phase generator will probably start the motor if it is not under load when it starts. A 15 kw generator would be better.
What size generator do you need to move a 30 hp electric motor?
A 5 kW generator would turn it over but if the full 30 hp of mechanical power is needed, that would require about 30 kW of electric power from the generator.
What size inverter in watts is needed to run a 1.5 horsepower motor?
To answer this question, the voltage whether the supply is single or three phase, of the 1.5 HP motor must be given.
What size diesel generator should I buy for a house this hurricane season?
The size of diesel generator varies greatly. The size that is needed would depend on the size of the house.
What size of wire to use for 1015 kva ac generator?
To answer this question a voltage must be given to find the current output. Also whether the generator is three phase or single phase.
Will a 2800 watt generator run a 550 watt electric cement mixer motor?
The sizing of the generator is dependant on the size of the electric motor driving the mixer.
