Hi all, need some clarifications from electrical
engineers, in our industry we are upgrading a
three phase induction motor from 30hp(22kw)
to 50hp(37kw).my question is on what basis
the electrical Amps rating is given to motor.I
have seen some motors of 30hp whose amps
rating differ from 40 to 45 amps.So, what is the
correct method to measure amps?.Currently the
present 30hp motor draws current of
45amps,38amps&40amps in phase 1,2&3
phases respectively at full load.What would be
the current drawn from a 50hp(37kw) motor at
full load?.
TIA.
