How do you calculate hp from amps?

1 HP is 746 watts in principle. The power is in watts, and the power is the volts times the amps. For an AC motor the power is the volts times the amps times the power factor times a factor that depends on the power-conversion efficiency of the motor.


How can you connect capacitor in parallel to ac motor?

To connect a capacitor in parallel to an AC motor, first ensure the power is off and the circuit is safe to work on. Then, wire the capacitor across the motor's power terminals, ensuring the correct polarity if it's a polarized capacitor. This setup can improve the motor's power factor and efficiency by providing reactive power, which helps reduce energy losses. Always consult the motor's specifications and local electrical codes before installation.


What is the power factor of AC generator when the reactive power is equal to zero?

Per factor is 1 when reactive power is zero.


Why ac motors are not used in railways?

Ac motor has a low starting torque so that DC series motor used in railways cause DC motor has high starting torque


What is lpf and upf wattmeters?

LPF (Low Power Factor) and UPF (Unity Power Factor) wattmeters are instruments used to measure electrical power in AC circuits. LPF wattmeters are designed for circuits with low power factor, where the phase difference between voltage and current is significant, while UPF wattmeters are used for circuits operating at or near unity power factor, where the voltage and current are in phase. The choice between the two depends on the power factor of the system being measured, as each type provides accurate readings under its respective conditions.

Can you run a 24 volt dc motor with 24 volt ac power?

Not usually. But this depends on how the motor is made. So a permanent magnet motor is usually a d.c. Motor. It's something to do as with the wires in the motor, the electromagnet-outer fields are wound.

What is the difference between an AC servomotor and a DC servomotor?

With a DC motor, power is supplied from a controller and transmitted to the motor windings via brushes and a commutator using pulse width modulation. This requires that the controller be adequate to handle the power/heat of the application and that the brushes and commutator are well maintained as they are wearing parts. With an AC servomotor, the controller only provides a low power signal to any size motor. Raw power to the motor is handled separately from the control circuit. The control signal is used to control the position of the motor which has internal position sensing capability. Power to the AC servo is always on.

How do you assumed power factor?

Power Factor is a maximum of one when the voltage and current in an AC waveform are in phase. Since power in watts is equal to voltage x current x power factor, you get maximum wattage with power factor = 1. This occurs with a pure resistive load. When you power an inductive load like a motor the power factor decreases and so does the delivered power. That is why motors are typically rated in VA, or volt-amperes rather than watts. So y Ou can assume power factor = 1 when you have a load measured in watts like a light bulb or space heater and perhaps in the .75 range for an inefficient motor.

How many watts is being used by a motor pulling 13.1 amps at 220 v?

The formula you are looking for is Watts = Amps x Volts. However, since the electricity is (probably) AC (wall power), you need to add an additional factor called "power-factor" because "AC" power doesn't work exactly like DC (battery) power. So the formula becomes Watts = Amps x Volts x "power-factor" - where the power factor is a decimal fraction somewhere between zero and one. Note that power factor is never larger than 1.0. Since the true power (multiplied by the power-factor) is always less than the "apparent power" (volts time amps without power-factor) you can use apparent power (also called "VA" - "Volt-Amperes" as a rough approximation. Unfortunately - in the case of a motor, the power-factor is not constant. It varies rather widely based on both speed and load, so if you need to know the EXACT power, you need a direct-reading AC watt-meter. If you want a closer approximation to "true power" - and you don't know the exact power factor - you can approximate it by multiplying "apparent power" by 0.71.
