Acceptable voltage drop for 3 phase 415 volt motor?

The voltage drop should not exceed 3% on a feeder or branch circuit.


What is the volt drop across a 10k resistor with a 5 volt supply?

If there is nothing else in the circuit, then the voltage drop across the resistor will be the full supply voltage of 5 volts. The size of the resistor does not matter in this case - it will always be 5 volts.

What size wire is needed for a 150 foot 350amp 208V 3phase circuit?

A 500 MCM copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 350 amps for 150 feet on a 208 volt system.


What is the symbol used to represent a volt drop within an electric circuit?

You usually use V for volts. There can also be a subscript. Say for the voltage drop of a resistor could be called VR.


Is 24 voltage a lot?

It depends on the use it is being put to. It is sufficient for a 24 volt circuit. Too much for a 12 volt circuit and too little for a 240 volt circuit.


Can you use a 125 volt bulb in a 120 volt lamp?

Yes, the voltage listed on the bulb is the nominal voltage and it will work perfectly on a 120 volt circuit.

What is the voltage drop for a240 volt single phase circuit 320 feet long. what is cable size required?

Not enough information. To answer this question the amount of current in AMPS the circuit is drawing is needed.


Can you wire a 120 volt ballast to a 347 volt circuit?

No, you cannot wire a 120 volt ballast to a 347 volt circuit. The ballast is designed to operate at a specific voltage, in this case 120 volts, and connecting it to a higher voltage circuit like 347 volts can damage the ballast and pose a safety hazard. It is important to match the voltage rating of the ballast to the circuit it will be connected to.


How can we check the starter's external wiring circuit for volt drop?

For voltage drop checking on the wire from the battery positive post to the starter main terminal, you place the voltmeter reading on the 1 to 3 volt range, (or what lower range you have). You then place one voltmeter lead on the positive battery post, the other lead you place on the starter positive terminal and have someone crank the engine. While the engine is cranking, you observe the voltage drop. It should be less than a volt. This seems strange because you would think the cable would not drop voltage but it sure can. If the battery post is dirty or bad connection, you could see a voltage drop all the way to the maximum 12 volts battery voltage depending upon the connection. Also you can check the return path the same way--- Negative case of the starter to the negative post on the battery for voltage drop. If it is more than a volt or two, you have a bad ground return circuit.
