How do you tell if a motor is 115V or 230V?

First and foremost you should look at the nameplate. If the nameplate is unreadable then you will do no harm plugging it into a 115 volt supply. If the motor looks like it is running at full speed then it is a 115 volt motor. If you plug it in and it looks like the shaft is turning at about half speed then it is a 230 volt motor. If the motor is running slow don't leave it plugged in for more that 15 seconds. Find a 230 volt supply and plug it in, it should run at the right speed. If you have a shaft tachometer use it on the end of the shaft to get an accurate rotation speed. The above prompted comparison with another motor, with the same RPM rating, allowing a simple feel of the shafts for a close speed match. The help is appreciated.


What are the running watts compared to the starting watts?

When you first turn on a motor it is starting from a static position and more current is required to get the motor up to speed (Starting current) than to keep it running (running current). Since watts equals amps times voltage you can see the difference in wattage is related to current. If you look at watts as work being done it is obvious that it requires more work to get the motor running than to keep it running.


What is the result of running a 480 volt 3 phase 60hz motor with 415 volt 3 phase motor?

Running a 480 volt motor at 415 volts can lead to decreased performance and efficiency due to the lower voltage supply. It may result in lower torque, higher current draw, and potentially overheating of the motor if not designed to handle such voltage differences. It's recommended to use a motor designed for the specific voltage it will be operating on to ensure optimal performance and longevity.


What is the amps for a 2.5hp 240v cont motor draw.?

Presuming single phase and 1500 rpm. Normal running current would nearly 10 Amps but varies considerably. A real cheap one running at 3000/3600 rpm could exceed 12 amps. At 240 volt, all should be run off 15 Amp line.


What do motor attacks consist of?

Motor attacks cause parts of the body to jerk repeatedly. A motor attack usually lasts less than an hour and may last only a few minutes.

It is important to fix the fan to prevent moisture buildup and potential mold growth in the bathroom.


Where is the reset button on the power window motor located on a 2003 maxima?

Pull door panel. Locate PW motor. There should be a black 1 1/2" circular resealable, peel off cover on the metal door panel by the motor. Peel it back....button is underneath. Must do the resetting with the motor running. Hold button while running window up and down several times. May take 15 minutes to get it right. Once the window sets........shut engine, wait 5 minutes and check. Do it again if it did not re-learn. This was just done on my 2003 Altima

Does a broken temperature gauge affect the running of the motor in a Ford Falcon 1994 model?

No, it should not. Unless the connection of the gauge on the motor is damaged in a way as to cause the motor to leak fluid (water or coolant). But just a broken gauge should not affect the performance of the motor.

If radiator fluid is drawn into radiator after 10 minutes of vehicle running is thermostat working?

Yes your thermostat is working if it is drawing coolant after about ten minutes. It depends on the size of your motor to determine how long it should take to hit the right temp for the thermostat to open up so it can send coolant through the system. If it starts within ten minutes your thermostat is working fine
