Make motor circuit how to calculate range of MCB?

To calculate the range of an MCB (Miniature Circuit Breaker) for a motor circuit, you need to consider the full load current of the motor in amps and select an MCB with a rating above this value to ensure it can handle the starting current and any potential overload conditions without tripping. It is recommended to select an MCB that is rated at least 1.5 times the full load current of the motor to provide a safety margin and prevent nuisance tripping.


Is the circuit wiring between the motor starter in a motor control center going to the equipment disconnect with a circuit breaker in it a feeder or a branch circuit?

The terminology for a feeder is any wire that is coming into a device (it feeds the device with power). A feeder will be the wire coming into the disconnect and also the wires going into the motor will be called feeders. Even the wires coming into the MCC will be termed feeders. Branch circuits are circuits that usually originates at the main distribution and spread outward to their respective loads. Branch circuit terminology encompasses all of the equipment in the circuit that is connected from the overload device to the field load device.


Why can a run capacitor with a single phase motor remain in circuit after the motor starts?

A run capacitor is used to improve the efficiency and power factor of a single-phase motor by providing a phase shift to the auxiliary winding. Once the motor is running, the capacitor helps maintain a steady motor speed and performance. It remains in the circuit to assist in the motor's operation.

If you have a DC passing through a circuit will the current decrease when you add a DC motor and if so by how much?

In the circuit where the DC motor is added, it was not specified whether the motor was added in series or in parallel to circuit elements. If it was added in series, it will increase circuit resistance and it will cause circuit current to go down. In parallel, the motor will reduce total circuit resistance, and circuit current will increase.

Why is a motor needed in a circiut?

A motor is not needed in a circuit, a motor is an electrical load for the current to drive, but the circuit can perform with other types of load - such as a lamp, a transformer, a heating coil, or any electronic load. if you mean 'why does an electric motor need a circuit?' this is because the motor is an electrical device which has coils of wire to produce a magnetic field, without the circuit it cannot function.


Will a motor be affected if light bulb burns out?

Yes, a motor can be affected if a light bulb burns out, depending on the circuit design. In a series circuit, if the light bulb is the only load, the circuit will open and the motor will stop functioning. However, in a parallel circuit, the motor will continue to operate because it is not dependent on the light bulb for power. Overall, the impact on the motor depends on how the devices are wired together.

The breaker should be sized to 250% of the motor's full load amperage.


What happens to to the speed of a motor if i increase or decrease the number of bulbs in a circit?

If you increase the number of bulbs in a circuit, the resistance in the circuit will increase, causing the motor's speed to decrease. If you decrease the number of bulbs, the resistance in the circuit will decrease, causing the motor's speed to increase.
