What is the full load current of a 50 hp three phase ac motor operating at 230 v?

Assuming you can get a three-phase 230 v supply, which has 133 v between neutral and each live, the full-load current assuming a 30% increase for power-factor and efficiency considerations would be 120 amps.
In Europe the standard three-phase supply is 400 v. In the US three-phase supplies are normally 208 v or 480 v and an alternative option is a 240/480 v split-phase (single-phase) supply.

How many percent will be the starting current for motor?
Motor starting current is typically 5-7 times the rated current of the motor. (For three phase induction motors)
What is the phase current of a three phase 2.2kw 415v motor connected in star?
The line current would be the same if the motor were connected in delta. The current can be based on the rule of thumb which says 7 amps must be allowed for a 1-HP single-phase motor on 240 v. A 2.2 kW motor is three times as powerful, and on a three-phase supply of the same voltage (240/415) it would draw 7 amps.
What is wye delta motor control?
It is a method of starting a three phase motor at a lower than operating voltage. The motor is operated at that voltage for a short specific time and then the controls switch to the motors full run operating voltage.
What will happen if winding resistances of a motor are different?
The motor will pull different amounts of power on the different phases, which will result in not operating smoothly for three phase motors.
How do you calculate the no-load current of a three phase induction motor?
All transformers, single phase or three phase have a "no-load current" rating. That is simply the nameplate rating of the Xformer in VA, (volt-amps) or KVA (1000Volt-amps) for larger Xformers. Simply divide the nameplate rating in VA or KVA by the supply voltage and you'll get the Xformers potential maximum output in ampheres.

Why neutral cross section is half the phase in three phase cable while it has to carry current of summation of all phase..?
The current carried by the neutral of a three phase four wire system is the un balanced current. If the three phase system was completely balanced on all three phases there would be no need for a neutral, eg a three phase motor. This neutral current will be less that the phase current so a reduction in the neutral size is allowed.
Does a single phase motor heat up more than a three phase motor?
No, the motor manufacturer maintains a specific temperature range for motors to operate in. It is usually 40 degrees C. The frame design and cooling fan on the motor shaft keeps the motor operating at a temperature within the manufactures specifications. This is regardless of whether the motor is single phase or three phase.
What would be the horse power required in a 3-phase motor to replace a .5 horsepower single phase motor.?
You still need the same horsepower. The advantage of the three-phase motor is that it will draw lower current.
Is house current fit for single or three phase motor?
House current is single phase.AnswerIt depends on the system supplying your residence. Most are single phase, but some, such as here in Cyprus, have a three-phase supply as standard.
How do you wire 3 phase power to 1 phase power diagram?
In an emergency and for a short period of time you can single phase a three phase motor but the motor will be loud, have terrible power characteristics and depending upon the use will burn up rather quickly. You should never try to run this in other than a life threatening emergency situation, the motors are not designed for it. Normally you don't. <<>> A three phase motor will not start on single phase. If the motor was started on three phase and loses a phase, it will stay running at a lower percentage of efficiency. Now a days the motor protection will not let a three phase motor run in a single phasing condition. All three phase legs of the motor are monitored and in a single phase condition the other two legs of the motor draw a higher current. This higher current is sensed by the motor's overload heaters in the motor's contactor and take the motor off line by opening the motor contactor. Now to the question, any two legs of a three phase system in electrical terms is known as single phase. As long as the three phase voltage matches the voltage needed in the single phase power diagram it can be connected to operate single phase equipment.
How do you use a one phase motor in place of a three phase motor?
To use a single/one phase motor instead of a three phase motor is possible if you have a three phase power supply as you will only need to tap one of the three phases together with neutral and an earthwire, however to use a three phase motor instead of a single phase will require the provision of three phase power supply.
What circuit you can use to run three phase motor?
It must be a three phase supply service to run a three phase motor.
What is wye delta motor control?
It is a method of starting a three phase motor at a lower than operating voltage. The motor is operated at that voltage for a short specific time and then the controls switch to the motors full run operating voltage.
How do you start a three phase motor to a single phase power supply?
You don't. A three phase motor will not start unless it is connected to a three phase supply.
What will happen if winding resistances of a motor are different?
The motor will pull different amounts of power on the different phases, which will result in not operating smoothly for three phase motors.
