Depends on how big the motor is. A stronger motor will draw more amps then a weaker or less efficient motor. For example a wiper motor draws far less then a starter motor.

What size of circuit breaker do you use for 25amperes induction motor?

Read the specification plate on the motor to determine the amount of current that the motor uses, as well as the voltage and phase. Most likely, it will be a 3 phase motor, so you can't simply connect it to your house wiring, but without sufficient information, it is impossible to tell you all of the specifics. <<>> The code book rates the amperage of a three phase 40 HP motor by different voltages. at 200 volts - 120 amps, 230 volts - 104 amps, 460 volts - 52 amps and 575 volts - 52 amps. A breaker for a motor has to be sized to 250% of the motors full load amps. Also the wire size for a motor has to be 125% of the motor full load amps.


How many amps does a 110 volt 1.3 kw motor draw?

110 volts divided by 1,300 watts(1.3 kw) = .09 kw or 900 watts.


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.


Will a 10 hp 220 volt motor draw large amounts of electricity?

A single phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 50 amps. A three phase 10 HP motor will draw aproximately 28 amps.


Are all large motors three-phase?

Yes, most large motors are three phase. Usually single phase motors only go up to 10 HP. Larger than this and the wire size and contactors used to control the motors becomes extreme. For example a single phase 10 HP motor on 115 volts draws 100 amps. The same single phase motor on 230 volts draws 50 amps. The same 10 HP motor on three phase system draws the following amperage; 230 volts is a 28 amp draw, 460 volts is a 14 amp draw and 575 volts is a 11 amp draw. As you can see the higher the voltage becomes, the smaller the wire feeder size is needed and much smaller size contactor can be used to control the motor.

How many amps drawn a 110KW motor?

Watts = Volts times Amps. Therefore, if the voltage was 220 volts, the motor would draw 500 amps. If the voltage was 4,000 volts, the motor would draw 27.5 amps. The voltages for large powerful motors tend to be relatively high, for example in the 380 Volts to 11,500 Volts range.


How many watts will it take to run a 120 volt 1 hp motor?

A 1 HP motor running at 120 volts will draw approximately 746 watts. This calculation is based on the formula: Watts = Volts x Amps.


Does a 31watt 240v motor draw 0.13 amps?

No, a 31-watt motor operating at 240 volts would draw approximately 0.13 amps. This calculation is done using the formula P = IV, where P is power (31 watts), I is current (amps), and V is voltage (240 volts).


18kW motor will take how many amps?

To calculate the amps drawn by an 18kW motor, you can use the formula: Amps = Power (Watts) / Voltage (Volts). Assuming a standard voltage of 120V, the motor would draw approximately 150Amps. Note that actual amps will depend on the specific voltage of the motor.


How many amps will a 3 hp motor pull on 230 volts?

It depends on the voltage of the motor, and whether it is single-phase or 3-phase. A 120 VAC 2HP single phase motor draws almost 20 amps, a 240 VAC single-phase 2HP motor draws about 10 amps. A 480 VAC 2HP three-phase motor only draws about 6 amps.


How many amps should a 0.5 horsepower motor draw?

Depends on the voltage. If you are running off 120 VAC, a 0.5 horsepower motor would draw 3.1 A.

You were given aload 2500 watts how much it draw amps?

To calculate the amperage draw, you need to know the voltage of the circuit where the 2500 watts appliance will be used. You can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For example, if it is a 120V circuit, the amperage draw would be 2500 watts / 120 volts = 20.83 amps.


How many amps does a 12 volt boat trolling motor use per hour?

You asked the wrong question. You need to know how many amps the motor uses. Then you can multiply amps times volts and get watts. Then you can multiply watts by hours and get watt hours. (For house electricity you pay for kilowatt hours.) A kilowatt is 1,000 watts.


How many amps does a 3 phases 600 volt 10 hp draw?

Assuming the power factor is 1, a 10 hp motor operating at 600 volts in a three-phase system would draw approximately 13.33 amps.


How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts?

Amps * Volts = Watts So, Watts / Volts = Amps 2000 / 240 = 8.333 Amps You should run the circuit on a two pole 15 Amp breaker, using 14 AWG, 2 conductor (plus ground) wire, just so you have a little safety factor in the circuit size.


How many amps will a 400 watt heater cartrige draw at 240 volts?

The formula you are looking for is I = W/E.
