1 ton AC takes how much current( starting & stable)

Answer Posted / tech mech

Check the Specification sheet of the Air-conditioner for wattage consumed or running current in Amperes. Starting current for compressor motors can be safely assumed as 3.5 times the running current. MCB (breaker) rating should be 1.5 times the max current required that is the starting current. So, Breaker rating should be 5-6 times Aircon running current. This is unique to appliances with motors like Refrigerators, Air conditioners, Washing machines, water pumps etc.,
