Motor Full Load Current

This document provides typical full-load current values in amps for 3-phase AC motors of various horsepower ratings running at standard speeds on 208V, 230V, and 460V power. The currents vary depending on voltage, with lower voltages requiring higher currents. Motors that operate at lower speeds or with higher torque may need more current than what is listed. Nameplate current ratings should be referenced for motors outside normal specifications.

Typical Full-Load Motor

Current Chart for Three


Phase Alternating-
Current Motors  

The following values of full-load currents are typical for


motors running at speeds usual for belted motors and
motors with normal torque characteristics. Motors built
for low speeds (1200 RPM or less) or high torques may
require more running current, and multispeed motors
will have a full-load current varying with speed. In these
cases the nameplate current ratings shall be used
