How many amps does a 5 hp motor draw at 480 volts?

AC Motor Full Load Amperes

HP 200 Volts 440-480 Volts
5 17.5 7.6
7.5 25.3 11
10 32.2 14
15 48.3 21

How much current should a motor draw at no load?

No load current for DC motor = 0.25 x Motor Full load current.

How do you calculate no load amps on a motor?

In-L = FLC * R/100

  1. Where In-L is the No Load Current (amps)
  2. FLC is the full load current (amps)
  3. R is the percentage of full load current (%) star motor = 10% delta motor = 30% dc motor = 25%

How many amps is a 5 hp motor?

Example: A 5 HP motor at 230V, 3PH is12. 4 amps.

What size breaker do I need for a 5 hp motor?

A 5hp single phase AC motor has a load current of 28 Amps. So 10GA. wire with a 30 Amp breaker will work.

How many amps does a 5.5 kW motor draw?

Three Phase Motors

MOTOR RATING HP APPROX. F.L.C. AT LINE VOLTAGE
4.0 kW 5.5 16
5.5 kW 7.5 20
7.5 kW 10 27
9.3 kW 12.5 34

How do you calculate no load?

The calculation of no-load (Iron) losses is based on the ratio of the voltages being measured and the rated voltage squared and the results multiplied by the no-load value from the data sheet.

What is no load current of a motor?

The current drawn by the induction motor when it is not coupled to the driven equipment is called no-load current of the motor. The equivalent circuit of an induction motor at no load is as given below. The no-load current produces the magnetic field in the motor. There are two parts of no-load current.

How many amps does a 5 hp well pump draw?

5 amps
5 hp and will use ~5 amps/700 watts during operation and will require at least 1.2 KW internally regulated generator to start/operate the pump. A 25 amp circuit breaker means the pump is 1 HP or smaller and will use ~9 amps/1400 watts during operation.
