ELECTRICAL LAYOUT AND ESTIMATE

SOLUTION.
1. �Assume motor efficiency say 85%
2.� 1- horse power is 746 watts, convert HP to watts.
746 x 2 = 1,492 watts
3. Efficiency = Out,put
� Input �
Input = 1.492
. 0.85'
..
= 1,1ss watts
4. For AC current
Power = Volts x �Amperes x power (actor
power factor = � Power
Volts x Amperes
.. pf. = 1 755
240 v. x 15 amp.
pf ~ . 0.4875 .
�Volt-Amperes.= 240 v. x 25
� Volt�Ariiperes = 3,600 v.a_. �
Take note the difference betWeen volt-amperes and watts.
