1. Switch on the motor & measure the current (i) using Clamp
meter.
2. The calculated current (i) should be multiplied with
250Watts.
3. The result value should be divided by 230Volts i.e the
present voltage ratings.
4. The result of the step 3 will be the induced motor
ratings in HP.
This is illustrated with a small example below:
Assume that a motor of 5HP 3-phase is not having a name plate.
For 5HP motor, the current ratings will be around 7amps.
As we all know that, 1amps=250Watts.
So, multiply 7amps with 250Watts i.e 7x250=1750
The result answer 1750is divided by present input voltage
i.e 230V.
1750/230=7.6
Hence the result answer is the induction motor's rating in HP.
Another easy method to calculate this is:
check the current & divide it with 1.39(current rating of 1
HP motor)
the result answer will be the motor rating in HP

- two pumps must work with them at the same time but if the first pump start the second pump must delayed for some time to start also , with motor rated power = 90 KW and rated voltage = 380 V and rated power factor = 0.85 lag please draw the power and control circuit for it and determine all circuit components parameters that you use it

I just purchased a 4 position cam switch to be used to operate a 3-speed blower motor. The motor is a 10 amp motor and has 3 wires that are used to control speed. The cam switch was rated at 660V 20 amps but when I received it, I noticed that it has AC-15 operational current rating (Ie) of 4/5 amps. If I am reading the label correctly. the 4/5 amps is related to 440v/220V (Ue). Other ratings are AC-3: 5.5A, AC2: 7.5A and AC-4: 1.5A. My questions are 1) Is it safe to use this switch with the motor I have 2) what is the difference between the 20 amp Ith ratting and the Ie operational ratings?
