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 would a slow cooker at 250 watts pull at 110 volts?

About 2.25 Amps.


How many amps does a 1.0hp pool pump pull?

One horsepower is equivalent to 746 watts. So if the motor is wired for 220 volts the current consumed is 3.39 amps. (watts divided by voltage = current) so? the label says 7.6 amps for a 1hp with a SF of 1.25 at 240 volts. 9.6 for a 1.5 hp .this is your typical pool pump motor, what motor are you getting data from ?


How many amps does 3000 watts pull?

Using the equation Volts X Amps = Watts, you can take 3000 watts / Volts to get your answer: 3000W/240V = 12.5A or 3000W/120V = 25A So, at 240 volts you will use 12.5 amps for 3000 watts of power. Or at 120 volts you will use 25 watts.


How many amps does a half horse power motor draw at 220 Volts?

to calculate: 1hp=745W 3hp=745*3=2.2Kw assuming a 3 phase motor power is V*I*pf*the square root of 3 I would gues a PF of 0.8 if its a resonable motor which gives about 7.2 amps per phase. if the PF is bad say .65 it could pull up to 9 amps in short, too little information to give you the actual answer.


How many amps and volts does a 36 volt golf cart system pull when charging?

Wrong question, it depends on the charger, not the golf cart.


How many amps should a 220 volt well pump pull?

The amperage a 220 volt well pump will pull depends on the wattage of the pump. You can calculate it by dividing the wattage by the voltage (220V) to get the amperage. For example, a 1 HP well pump typically pulls around 8-10 amps at 220 volts.


How many amps will a 5200 btu heater pull?

To determine the amperage draw of a 5200 BTU heater, you can use the formula: Amps = BTUs / (Voltage x Efficiency). For example, if the heater operates at 120 volts and has an efficiency of about 100%, it would pull approximately 43.3 amps (5200 BTU / 120 volts). However, many small heaters operate at lower voltages (like 120V), so it's essential to check the specific heater's specifications for accurate amperage.


How many amps does 6000 watts pull?

There are zero amps in 6600 watts. Watts are the product of amps times volts. W = A x V. To find amperage use the following equation, A = W/V, so as you can see a voltage value is needed in the equation to result in an amperage.


How much amps 220volt2 horsepower pump pull?

One HP is equal to 746 watts. 2 x 746 = 1492 watts. The formula you are looking for is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. The most accurate amperage is found on the nameplate as this is established by the motor's manufacturer.


How many amps does a 25000 BTU air conditioner pull?

A 25,000 BTU air conditioner typically pulls around 10 to 15 amps, depending on its efficiency and design. To convert BTUs to amps, you can use the formula: Amps = BTUs / (Volts x Efficiency), where standard voltage is often 230 volts for larger units. It's essential to check the specific model's specifications for accurate amperage.


How many amps does a 400w power inverter pull?

Aprox 12 amps.
