The total cost of changing over to the higher voltage would be too much for small industrial factories to handle. It would mean major equipment changes to the power utility companies for different Transformers. It all about the money. This is the same reason that the US did not go over to the metric system, the cost of change was too much of a burden on the economy.

Is sj cord rated for 300 volts to be used for 480 volt?
No, SJ cord is only rated for 300 volts and is not suitable for use with 480 volts. It is important to use the correct voltage rated cord for safety and to prevent damage to equipment. Look for cords that are specifically rated for 480 volts.
How much current does 60 watts Operated at 480 volts have?
To calculate the current, we can use the formula Power (watts) = Voltage (volts) * Current (amps). Plugging in the values given, we get 60 watts = 480 volts * Current. Solving for Current, we find Current = 60 watts / 480 volts = 0.125 amps.
1 ton of cooling at 480 Volts equals how many amps?
To determine the amps for a 1 ton cooling unit at 480 Volts, you would need to know the power rating of the unit in Watts. Once you have the Watts, you can use the formula Amps = Watts/Volts to calculate the amperage.
Can a 575 volt drive power a 480 volt motor?
It is not recommended to power a 480 volt motor with a 575 volt drive as the drive output voltage may exceed the motor's insulation rating, potentially causing damage to the motor. It is best to use a drive that matches the motor's voltage rating to ensure safe and efficient operation.

How many amps for 3000 watts 480 volt?
To find the current in amps for a given power in watts and voltage in volts, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. For 3000 watts at 480 volts, the calculation would be 3000 watts / 480 volts, which equals approximately 6.25 amps.
How much current does 60 watts Operated at 480 volts have?
To calculate the current, we can use the formula Power (watts) = Voltage (volts) * Current (amps). Plugging in the values given, we get 60 watts = 480 volts * Current. Solving for Current, we find Current = 60 watts / 480 volts = 0.125 amps.
Is a 300 volt wire good to connect a range?
The 300 volt insulation rating on wire is the maximum amount of voltage that can be applied to that wire. If your range falls within that range then it is safe to use. Some commercial ranges use 480 and 575 volts. For theses types of ranges the 300 volt wire will not do, it will have to be wire with a conductor whose insulation rating is 600 volts or greater.

What is the volt drop on a cable 912 meters 480 volts and load of 54 amps?
The volt drop on a cable 912 meters 480 volts and load of 54 amps is 5% if you use 2/0 AWG wire and 2.4% if you use 300MCM wire. See Related Links below

Hp equals 60 and volts equals 480 what are the amps?
746 Watts per horsepower / 480 volts x power factor x efficiency x 1.73 = amps assuming that the motor is three phase. 746 x 60 =44760 watts divided by 480 x 1.73 = 53.9 amps ( If the pf and eff. information is not known this will put you in the ball park)
How many watts does 115 volts equal im trying to find out how many amps does a 115 volt is equal to?
Watts is found by multiplying the volts by the amps. Normally a supply is provided at a fixed voltage, and the amount of current that is drawn depends on how many watts the equpiment requires.
I have a coolant motor with 420 volts in Lathe Machine but the supply voltage will be 480 volts. Can 420 volts 50Hz coolant motor can use in 480 volts 60Hz?
No, you'll burn your lathe motor up immediately. (it might last 30 seconds before it literally smokes.) You'll need to buy and install a "buck-boost" type transformer to drop the voltage from 480 to 420V. Best to have a qualified commercial electrician wire it up if you value your lathe.
How do 480 volt control circuits work?
480 volt control circuits work by using 480 volts of electrical power to control the operation of various electrical devices such as motors, lights, and heaters. The control circuit typically includes a control panel, relay switches, contactors, and push buttons to regulate the flow of electricity and activate or deactivate the connected equipment. These circuits are designed to provide a safe and efficient method of controlling high-power electrical components in industrial applications.
