| Motor Ampacity (FLA)(FLC) and Characteristics | ||
 |
||
| Volts' Motor Ampacity and Characteristics module uses either NEC® Tables 430.247, 430.248, 430.249 and 430.250 OR known motor nameplate values for its computations. | ||
|
|
||
| When entering data from the NEC® Motor Ampacity Tables: | ||
| Volts interpolates the power value to the correct amperage if an exact match is not found in these tables. For example, a 7 1/2 hp inductive motor is rated at 22 amperes at 220 volts. What about an 8 hp motor? Volts' interpolation algorithm makes it easy. Volts calculates amperage values either above or below the NEC® tables and displays the results. | ||
| When entering data from the known motor nameplate values: | ||
| Volts utilizes your entered nameplate values and computes the motor's required ampacity. | ||

It simply cannot be any easier or more accurate to obtain the correct information the first time. |
