As the load increases on a motor the amperage rises. Increasing the load amps over the motors full load amp rating can shorten the motor's life because of excessive heat. Motors should have overload protection in their circuits to prevent this condition from happening by tripping the motor contactor and opening the motor's voltage supply.

What size breaker do you need for a well pump?

A breaker is based on the amperage that is drawn by the pump motor load. Find the full load amperage of the motor. The wire fed from the breaker has to be rated at 125% of the motors full load amperage. The breaker for motors have to be over sized, usually 250% of the motors full load amps.

What wire size for world's simplest motor?

Wire size is based on the amperage of the load. Without knowing what the motors's full load amperage is, an answer can not be given.


Why noload current in big motors is higher than load current?

In large motors, the no-load current is higher because the motor needs to overcome the friction and windage losses present when running without a load. These losses require more power to overcome, resulting in a higher current draw. When the motor is under a load, the additional power required to turn the load increases the current draw further.

DifferEnces of long vs short shunt DC COMPOUND MOTORS?

the basic difference is ,in short shunt motor the series field winding wont carry any current under no load condition whereas in long shunt motors series winding will carry no load current.....


Why do some induction motors start at no load?

The motor might produce little torque when starting. Single-phase motors are particularly bad in this regard. So it is often necessary to remove the load while starting. Loads like fans or rotary driers do not need the load taking off while starting, because the demanded torque is small at low speeds.


How will star and delta configured three phase induction motors perform as load increases?

Motors with star delta starter, starts with star mode, avoiding inrush of current for a relatively higher starting load, as the speed picks up, it goes to Delta mode with full phase voltage applied across the winding and continues to cater to the designed load.
