Explanation of Solution

Given information:

Horsepower is 20 HP.

Armature voltage rating is 500 V

Solution:

Refer Table 430.247 “Full Load Current in Amperes, Direct Current Motors” from page 368 and obtain the full load current in amperes corresponding to the horsepower of 20 HP and the armature voltage rating of 500V as follows:

  Full load current=34.0 A

Thus, the full load running current of the motor is 34 A.
