The supply is probably 400 v three-phase with 230 v between each live and neutral. On this assumption the current is 49 amps and the copper cable size is 16 mm2 for a run of up to 30 metres.
To calculate the amperage of a 1250 HP motor at 4160 volts in a three-phase system, you can use the formula: Amperage (I) = (Horsepower × 746) / (Voltage × √3 × Power Factor). Assuming a power factor of around 0.9, the calculation would yield approximately 174.5 amps. Therefore, a 1250 HP motor at 4160 volts would draw around 174.5 amps in a three-phase system.
600 volts between any two wires. The phase has nothing to do with voltages, only current relationship.
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.
Yes, if the motor is rated 240 volts 3 phase.There is such a thing as 240 volt 3 phase power.However if you are asking if you can use 240 volts single phase on a three phase motor, then the answer is no.
400 volt three phase on a grounded system is 230 volt single phase, with each phase 120 degrees apart. So, if you have a 400 volt, three phase four wire service (grounded service), you can pull one phase off and reference to the neutral for 230 volt service. Note this may not allow 115 volt service, unless there is also a center tap for each phase.
It is probably a three phase 50 Hz motor.
If the motor is a three phase the most likely voltage the motor operates on will be 480 volts.
Usually with a voltage of 600 volts the motor will be three phase. To use a transformer with that motor you will need a three phase 240 volt service. These days utility companies are moving away from three phase 240 and substituting it with 120/208. The 208 three phase service has the added bonus that 120 volts can be obtained from the star point (grounded neutral).
Two scenarios are that the motor could be a three phase motor. These three phase motors are manufactured in smaller sizes. The other scenario is that the motor is a 208/220 volt single phase motor. It will operate on 208 volts by taking two legs of the three phase supply for its operation.
yes . A change of motor would be required. The motor windings would have to be totally different. three hot leads instead of two. And three phase would have to come from your provider.
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.
To calculate the amperage of a 1250 HP motor at 4160 volts in a three-phase system, you can use the formula: Amperage (I) = (Horsepower × 746) / (Voltage × √3 × Power Factor). Assuming a power factor of around 0.9, the calculation would yield approximately 174.5 amps. Therefore, a 1250 HP motor at 4160 volts would draw around 174.5 amps in a three-phase system.
A three phase panel will not give you 110 and 220 volts. A three phase four wire panel will, but not at these voltages. The nearest voltages will be 120 and 208 volts. The 120 volt is the wye voltage of 208 volts. 208/1.73 = 120 volts. A single phase three wire panel will give you 110 and 220 volts.
About 3 amps, maybe slightly less.
These voltages are both wye connection three phase voltages. The voltage difference comes from the primary three phase voltage supplies. 277 volts is obtained from 277 x 1.73 = 480 and 240 volts is obtained from 240 x 1.73 = 415. 480/277 volts is a common three phase American voltage. 415/240 volts is a European voltage. In Canada a common three phase voltage is 347/600. The 240 volts could also be a single phase voltage in North America derived from a split phase secondary on a distribution transformer that supplies 120/240 volts to homes.
The process of obtaining 220 volts from 380 volts is quite simple. 380 volts is a three phase four wire system voltage. The 220 volts is obtained by taking the sq. root of 3 which equals 1.73 and dividing it into the phase voltage. 380/1.73 = 220 volts. This holds true with any three phase four wire voltage system. 208/1.73 = 120 volts, 415/1.73 = 230 volts, 480/1.73 = 277 volts and 600/1.73 = 347 volts. This lower voltage is present on any of the three phase legs of the three phase system to the neutral which is grounded on a wye connection.
Let's get the terminology correct. A 'phase voltage' is measured across a phase, whereas a line voltage is measured between two lines. So there is no such thing as a 'phase to phase' voltage -it's a line to line voltage (hence the term 'line voltage').
