All you can do is get in the ballpark knowing resistance of windings and the supply voltage. Current = Voltage divided by resistance.

Wattage = voltage x current x power factor. For a motor the power factor is between zero and sone number less than one, with one being just a resistive load. So if you calculate the current and use a PF = 1 you can get worse case wattage.

How do you calculate resistance box for slip ring motor?

To calculate the resistance for a slip ring motor, there is an equation that must be solved. This is Torque = S/R. S is the slip of the motor and R is the resistance of the motor.


Do the same wattage light bulb have different resistance?

Yes. The resistance of a globe depends not only on the wattage of it but also on the voltage. A 12 V Globe would has a quarter the resistance of a 24 volt globe for the same wattage. (when alight)


What is Hot Resistance?

Hot resistance is your total resistance you can have with out exceeding your wattage limit


Does higher wattage mean a more powerful motor?

Not always. Wattage is a measure of power consumption, not motor power. A more powerful motor may have higher wattage, but efficiency and design also play a role in motor performance.


How many amps are needed for a 220V well?

The amount of amperage needed for a 220V well will depend on the wattage of the well pump. To calculate the amperage, divide the wattage of the pump by the voltage (220V) to get the amperage required.


How do you calculate line current?

How do I calculate wattage?

To calculate wattage, you need to multiply the voltage (V) by the current (I). The formula is: Wattage (W) = Voltage (V) x Current (I). This formula applies to electrical circuits where the voltage is known and the current is flowing.

How do you calculate current and voltage passing through light globes?

To calculate current passing through a light globe, you can use Ohm's Law: current (I) = voltage (V) / resistance (R). To calculate voltage across a light globe, you can rearrange Ohm's Law to solve for voltage: voltage (V) = current (I) * resistance (R). Just make sure you know the resistance of the light globe in ohms.


How much electricity consume a 15 hp motor?

For calculation purposes one horsepower is equal to 746 watts. So to find the total wattage of the motor multiply the total horsepower by 746. To change the wattage to kilowatts divide the total wattage by 1000.


What fractional HP is a 3 amp motor?

To calculate the HP of a motor, you can use the formula: HP = (Watts x Efficiency) / 746 Where Efficiency is a typical value between 0.7 and 0.9. For a 3 amp motor, you will need to know the voltage to calculate the wattage and then convert it to HP using the formula above.
