Question
Chapter 47, Problem 1RQ
To determine
The full load running current of the 20 horse power motor as it is connected to 500 V DC line.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Consider the table shown in 430.247 in the textbook. The table shows the full load current values for the dc motor at the base speed for the different voltages and the horsepower values.
Therefore, the full load running at 20 HP DC motor connected to 500 V DC line is 34 amperes.
