Reference boundary

Motor current estimate only. Motor nameplate current, service factor, efficiency, power factor, voltage, and product data govern field use.

Reference table

Estimate three-phase motor full-load current at 600 V from horsepower, efficiency, and power-factor assumptions.

Formula basis: amps = hp x 746 / (sqrt(3) x 600 V x efficiency x power factor), using rounded assumptions.

  • Use this table for preliminary reference and arithmetic checks only.
  • Confirm equipment ratings, product markings, installation conditions, utility requirements, and the local authority requirements before design or field use.
