If it's a 380 v 3-phase supply, the current is up to 300 amps which could be supplied over a short distance by XLPE cable with 70 sq. mm cross-section conductors.

What percentage is 150 volts 0f 120 volts?

150 volts is 125% of 120 volts.


Can a 125 volt cable power a 120 volt piece of equipment?

The first thing we have to do is clarify the question. A cable rating of 125 volts is an insulation rating of the wire. Like wire with ratings of 300 volts, 600 volts and 1000 volts these are the highest allowable voltages that can be applied. A wire that is rated for 300 volts is good for 120 volts, 240 volts and 277 volts. At test research facilities, equipment is tested to destruction. The label that is given to wire as a result of the tests is the highest safest voltages that can be applied to that particular wire. So when you see a wire that has a label stating that it is rated for 300 volts it means that any voltage under and up to 300 volts is safe to apply. So to answer the question yes, the 125 volt insulation rating on the cable can be used to supply a source of 120 volts to a 120 volt rated piece of equipment.


What are the amps for a 125 HP 460 motor?

To determine the amperage for a 125 HP motor operating at 460 volts, you can use the formula: Amps = (HP × 746) / (Volts × Efficiency × Power Factor). For a typical efficiency of 90% and a power factor of 0.9, the calculation would yield approximately 160-170 amps. However, it's important to check the specific motor's nameplate for accurate ratings, as these can vary.


How do you get 125 volts from l14-30 outlet?

To obtain 125 volts from an L14-30 outlet, you'll need to connect to one of the 125-volt legs. The L14-30 outlet is a NEMA configuration that typically provides both 125 volts and 250 volts, with two hot wires (L1 and L2), one neutral, and a ground. By using only one of the hot wires and the neutral wire, you can access the 125 volts. Ensure that you follow proper electrical safety practices and, if necessary, consult a qualified electrician.


What amp breaker do you use for a three fourths horse garage door opener?

A 15 amp should be fine, provided that #14 wire is used for the outlet. If #12 is used, then use a 20 amp breaker. Depending on what the motor voltage is makes a difference on what the wire size is. A 3/4 HP motor draws 13.8 amps at 115 volts and 6.9 amps at 230 volts. The motor feeder conductor must have an ampacity at least equal to 125% of the full load current rating of the motor. 13.8 x 125% = 17.25 amps. The conductor required on a motor using 120 volts is #12 rated at 20 amps. The breaker for this motor needs to be rated at 30 amps.

What is the cable size for motor 15kw 440 volts connection?

The current draw is about 27 amps. A motor feeder has to be 125% of the motors full load amperage. 27 x 125% = 33 amps. A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 40 amps.

What size cable for 90kW 3phase 440v 50Hz motor?

To size cable the amperage must be known. Use the following equation to find amperage. Amps = kW x 1000/1.73 x volts x pf. A standard motor's power factor between 10 to 100 HP is .86 to .92. Amps = 90 x 1000 = 90000/ 1.73 x 440 x .92 = 90000/700 = 128 amps. Motor feeders have to be rated at 125% of the motor full load amperage. 128 x 125% = 160 amps. A 2/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 175 and 185 amps respectively.


Can you replace 2.5 Amps 125 Volts with 10 Amps 125 Volts?

You physically can but sit will be unsafe, and will not protect the circuit because it will not blow when it should. Only replace a fuse with the same size fuse.

What is power cable size 10kW 3 phase motor with 415V?

The formula for amps when kilowatts are stated is; kW x 1000/1.73 x Volts x pf. 10 x 1000/1.73 x 415 x .8 = 10000/574 = 17 amps. The electrical code states that motor feeders have to be rated at 125% of the motors FLA (full load amps). 17 x 125% = 21 amps. A #10 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated at 30 amps.


What size breaker is needed for a 125 hp motor?

It depends on what the amperage of the motor is. The motors amperage depends on the voltage of the motor. The higher the voltage the motor operates on the lower the amperage. So unless the amperage from the motor's nameplate is stated an answer can not be given.Just remember that the feeder capacity to the motor has to be 125% of the motors full load amperage and the breaker protecting the conductors to the motor has to be rated at 250% of the motors FLA. This higher breaker size allows the motor to start without tripping a normal size breaker that is rated for the lower conductor size.


What size wire and breaker for 125hp 240 volts 3 phase motor?

The wire size and the circuit breaker for a 125 hp motor must consider the length of lead wire to the motor (essentially the distance of the motor from the supply). 125 hp is a VERY large motor and would be used only in industrial applications. You will need to consult a technician for proper advice, but the general answer to your question follows: The current draw on such a large motor would be approximately 300 amps. That is very large, and would require a wire size of 0000 AWG or 750M. 0000 AWG is 0.46 inches (11.68 mm) in diameter. As you can see, the wire is very large. It is not something you could install yourself.
