Starting Electric Motors
-
Electric motors require
much more current (amps) to start them than to run
--
them. Some motors, particularly low cost split-phase
motors are very hard to start and require 5 to 7 times
as much current to start them as to run them. Ca-
pacitor motors are easier to start and usually require
2 to 4 times as much current to start them as to run
them. Repulsion Induction motors are the easiest to
start and usually require
11/2
to 2% times as much
current to start them as to run them.
Most fractional horsepower motors take about the
same amount of current to run them whether they
are of Repulsion-Induction (RI), Capacitor (Cap), or
Split-Phase (SP) type. The chart below shows the ap-
proximate current required to start and run various
types of sizes of 120 volt 60 cycle electric motors
under average load conditions.

The figures given above are for average loads such
as a blower or fan. If the electric motor is connected
to a hard starting load such as an air compressor,
it will require more starting current. If it is connected
to a light load, or no load such as a power saw, it
will require less starting current. The exact require-
ment will also vary with the brand or design of the
motor.

listed below you will find
the motor starting capability of your engine gener-
ator set.

Trying to start a larger motor or a higher code (ie.
J
or
K)
motor may result in damage to both the gen-
erator and the electric motor especially 120 volt
motors.
