  • This video walks through the steps to calculate the maximum overload setting for an individual motor using the 2015 Canadian Electrical Code. This is not an installation guide, and local inspection authorities should always be consulted.

    Studying to challenge my third block and these videos are so helpful. If you have any tips for third year code, I would be beyond grateful. Thanks for doing these!

    I'm trying to calculate an ISO or German motor with a cosine of 0,95 ~ My understanding is that "european" motors are basically at factors of 1 on down to 0.85 or so which isn't very efficient. So if the motorplate says AMPS at 3.4 ~ with a cosin of 0.95 I would set my overload "at basically" 3.4 Amps IS THIS CORRECT?

    Appreciate the refresh. All journeymen/women should take some time to review their knowledge base. The field is so diverse and its easy to get stuck doing the same things for a while, which leads to important aspects being forgotten.
    Congrats on the channel.

    motor will run in star (Y) current only but why ur selecting over load relay for delta connection

    • @schulerruler
      @schulerruler  27 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Because the Delta current is the full load current of the motor. When selecting the overload settings however, you must start with 57.7% of the FLA before application of 28-306 1).

  • @trentonreisinger6285
    @trentonreisinger6285 ปีที่แล้ว

    Shouldnt your 26 A motor have FLA x 1.15 if your s.f. is less than 1.15? Not 1.25

    • @schulerruler
      @schulerruler  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The service factor written under the 26A FLA motor is 1.3 which would permit the overloads to have a maximum to seeing of 26 x 1.25.

    I HAVE A SINGLE PHASE MOTOR 1,5KW,9,5A MAX,WHAT SIZE OVERLOAD?

    • @schulerruler
      @schulerruler  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Check your service factor. If it is more than 115%, your overload is permitted to be rated at not more than 125% of 9.5A.
      If service factor is unmarked, or 115% or less, then it is not to exceed 9.5A x 1.15.

    If I have A 30 HP, 600 V, 3 Phase squirrel cage motor feed from autotransformer and is controlled by a Star-Delta starter. What is the maximum size inverse time circuit breaker allowed to protect the circuit.
    Is it based on phase current like the above video showing?

    May I know what the 0.577 is?

    • @schulerruler
      @schulerruler  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It correlates to the 57.7% that the phase current is in relation to the line current. As the overloads only see the phase current we must use 57.7% of line current to size them or the motor could significantly overdraw in an overload condition.

    How should I compute the min overload settings then?

    • @schulerruler
      @schulerruler  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Minimum would be equal to the FLA of the motor, but you would likely see a lot of nuisance tripping setting it that low.

    Why you not use RLA for calculate?

    • @schulerruler

      Because calculations are based on the motor operating at full load. Anything less would undersize components and conductors once more runs at full load capacity.

      Overcurrent sizing is done in a separate video, to keep things one step at a time for simplicity. The overcurrent would be a completely separate calculation that does not require sizing of the conductor. I'm happy to help clarify any confusion, thanks for watching.
