Motor Circuit Voltage Drop
Voltage Drop in Motor Circuits
Motor circuits require special consideration for voltage drop due to high starting currents and continuous operation.
Key Considerations
- • Starting current can be 6-8 times full load current
- • Excessive voltage drop reduces motor torque
- • Motors may fail to start if voltage is too low
